As  children, we were asked to read because "you need to, to become someone in life" Parents, teachers and librarians have expressed their opinions on the many benefits of books, but has anyone ever told us what reading does to our brain?  Well, let me say this... It is surprising to find out exactly what happens in our heads when we open a book. Reading is perhaps one of the best hobbies in the world...and maybe the healthiest.

They don't need to be forced to learn but rather, provided with conditions that can allow them to learn.  In my opinion, learning involves a new generation of human beings who acquire and build up on skills, knowledge, beliefs and values of the former generation.
