Great quotes! I'm a reader myself and am lucky to have three kids who love to read as well. Now hoping to pass that love on to my grandson.

I love this! My kids aren't huge readers so I'm always trying to encourage them to read. These quotes are great. I especially love: "Reading is a discount ticket to everywhere."
