I'm sure there are some people who just won't be interested in reading no matter what kind of experiences they had in childhood. We all have different tastes. At least you have made sure your child was exposed to reading.

She was dyslexic and always considered reading a chore instead of "fun", but she says she wishes she did enjoy reading and finds it a good hobby to have, so I lucked out there.
My son is 19 now so hopefully he one day decides to start reading on his own. I was excited when he was almost there with a fantasy series, and with Diary of a Wimpy Kid, but sadly the brief enthusiasm kept dying out again
