I read books at the park because its shady and I can feel like I am actually in a book that is at a park under the ocean.

I love to read. When I read, I feel like I am on a new adventure learning about new places and people. Reading is like a magic carpet ride taking me to places I have never visited.

The reason I read is to hear about people, places and animals that I may never get to visit in my lifetime. I can even learn about things that don't even exist in real life, but they do on paper. Reading takes you away in thought, where you can witness it over and over, letting your imagination define the colors, pictures and places. A world all to your self that u can put down and pick up again and again, starting and stopping whenever u want.

I like to read lots of things. I like to read books on my iPad. I read whenever I don't have a lot of work to do. I read just for fun. I like to get lost in a book.

Oh, I LOVE reading!
I read for many reasons - to go in imaginary adventures, to learn about other people and places, to enjoy the power and the gentleness of words (in poems), to dream...because "Reading is like dreaming with open eyes..."
Why do *YOU* read, little ones? :)

I regularly read magazines, the newspaper and both fiction and non-fiction books. I read to learn new things, stay up-to-date on the daily news, and for enjoyment. As a family, we read at least one silly book before bedtime - but it usually turns into two or three books. A good laugh before bed is always a good thing. Some of our favorites are HICCUPotamus, Knuffle Bunny and Moostache.

I love to cuddle with my kids and read before bed! Tonight, Grace and I read a book about dogs. Stella and I read 2 books about Biscuit. Have you read any books about a little yellow dog named Biscuit?

My favorite reading time is when we read as a family before bed. We read all kinds of books- puzzle books to help exercise our brains, books that help us deal with our feelings and books that teach us important lessons; but our favorite bedtime books are fun/silly books. Some of our silly favorites are The Underpants Zoo and HICCUPotamus. What is your favorite 'silly' book?

I read to learn about places that I will never get to visit, to travel back in time, to go on an adventure, to meet people who I would like to be or to have as a friend and to have all my emotions tested.

I like reading because it is so relaxing! I like to find a cozy spot to sit by myself and pretend I am one of the characters in the book.

I read for lots of reasons...
I read stories to my children to have fun and to help them learn to read.
I read the news, so I know what is going on in the world.
I read papers that come home from school and sports to know where and when our children need to be at activities.

Hi Mrs. Frazier's Class,
I like to listen to books in the car. It takes me a long time to drive to work and I get to listen to lots of wonderful stories. Audiobooks are a great way to share a book with your family on long car rides too. One of my favorite authors is Patricia Polacco. We are reading her books and she's coming to our school next week.
From,
Mrs. Andrada and Mrs. Zaba's Class

We read to learn new things, and because it is fun! We also like to build our stamina. That means how long we can read.
