There are a few things I feel strongly about when it comes to reading:
- Books should be all over the house, not just stuck in one spot.
- Books should cover all forms of media–audio, video, you name it.
- Books should be read at all times of the day.
- Books should be well-used and well-loved.
- Books should be shared.
- Books should be taken on trips.
That last one, Books should be taken on trips, is a big one.
Books should be taken on all trips–not just big, let’s-pack-a-suitcase kinda trips. But all trips. Books should be taken on short trips, long trips, car trips and bus trips.
Really and truly.
