Reading is important tool for learning. Teaches people about the world around them. It exposed them to ways of life‚ ideas and beliefs about the world which may be different from those which surround them. Also helps improve your vocabulary‚ structure your sentences and how to use words and language effectively. It require concentration and determination.

Summer reading is one

The joy o f reading i believe in the absolute and unlimited liberty of reading. I believe in wandering through the stacks and picking out the first thing that strikes me. I believe in choosing books based on the dust jacket. I believe in reading books because others dislike them or find them dangerous. I believe in choosing the hardest book imaginable.

Summer Reading Description To be completely honest‚ this year was one of the first years that I actually did summer reading. I usually never do summer reading‚ the last time I probably did it was back in 6th grade and even then I had read a Judy B. Jones book a day before school even started. I decided I would do it this year since I want to do better in school‚ plus my mom and my girlfriend kept pushing me on until I started it.

Response Reading: An American Childhood My first reaction to An American childhood was a lot like my own memories when I was a child. I have vivid memories of throwing snowballs at cars driving by‚ playing football‚ and hanging with the boys. I related to Annie Dillard more than any author I have ever read. Dillard was not the average type of girl growing up and neither was I. I’m sure though that this relates to many children when growing up and not having a care in the world. She was much more
