My observation is that children are reading now more than I can ever before remember in my longish lifetime. My grandchildren and their friends read voraciously. Even my 13-year-old grandson who once told me he hates to read just finished The Hunger Games after seeing the movie. They also play video games (and volleyball, baseball, basketball, football and soccer, as well as camp and hike in the summer).
The libraries here in northern Idaho are packed with children during story hours. Surely this love of reading in the young is not a local phenomenon.
