Saw a sign in a book shop window "Shock your parents read a book!!". Is it a lost art. Once they leave school do kids pick up a book for the sheer pleasure of reading.

Snap with Blue Marlin.. Mine are 8 and 12 and are avid readers but read well above their age. My 12 year old has just read all the Dan Brown (Da Vinci Code) novels.

That's good news, isn't it! I have gaming devices. Apart from a dancemat, I can't see the point in them...

All ours read books, and still do. I am always amused by people who come to our house ... every one, almost, has said something like good god what a load of books, or cor, you must like reading ...
I used to read the Times to my bump throughout my pregnancy, from a very young age he had a bedtime story and had started to read by the time he was 3½...
He has a huge book collection and reads daily, he's now 16½ - long may it continue!
