Reading is so important for our kids. It allows them to escape their lives, because let's be honest, kids lives aren't always so easy. Inundated with heavy homework schedules, pressure to fit in, to make friends -- it can all be very overwhelming.
Books can be a release. It can be a way to escape into another world. To daydream about a fantastical place. A place you would want to go to escape from how hard it is to grow up. That's why books like the Harry Potter series was so fantastic. Kids could be the often overseen hero. The quiet person who is destined for greater things.
We need more books like this to get kids excited about reading. To help them through difficult times.
