“It is not enough to simply teach children to read;
we have to give them something worth reading.
Something that will stretch their imaginations-
something that will help them make sense of their own lives
and encourage them to reach out toward people
whose lives are quite different from their own.”
― Katherine Paterson

“I read so I can live more than one life in more than one place.”

They didn't get married after all.”
― Robert Munsch

“Do one thing every day that scares you.”
― Eleanor Roosevelt
