One of the worst things you can do to a budding bookworm is make reading a chore by forcing them to read stuff they aren't interested in.



A kid who is addicted to the Percy Jackson books is more likely to seek out Edith Hamilton’s Mythology than a kid that doesn't read at all.


This is true. Kids that love reading will read as anything to feed their habit. If they find an interest in something, they generally will go on to read further in the area.

I would've loved it if e-readers and the internet had existed when I was a child.
