Begin by reading the 2-page Washington Post article. Then click on the link to the full 99 page report in the second sentence of the article. Once the pdf file opens, read pages 16-20 entitled, "The Declines in Reading Have Civic, Social, and Economic Implications".
Post your comments about both the Post article and the section from the actual report. How will your future income opportunities be affected by your reading habits? Maybe Mrs. Henry's Outside Reading requirement is good for you after all.
