"The love of Reading is one of the greatest gifts a
parent or grandparent can give a child."
"The more that you read, the more things you will
know. The more that you learn, the more places
you'll go.                                Dr. Suess

"A book is like a garden, carried in the pocket."
                                               Chinese proverb
"Reading is to the mind what exercise is to
 the body."                              Sir Richard Steele
"Read at every wait; read at all hours; read within
leisure; read in times of labor;
read as one goes in, read as one goes out. The task
of the educated mind is simply put; read to lead."
                                           Marcus Tullius Cicero
"Reading is a way for me to expand my mind,
open my eyes and fill up my heart."
