Reading Month

March is reading month and my favorite childhood book was any of the Gary Paulsen books. These book's are my favorite because they are full of adventure. I did not have someone read to me on a regular basis when I was little. When  I was little I had more time to read books and these are the ones you would always find on my desk for when  I had spare time to read.

 Most teenager's today don't like to read because its time consuming. They want to do other things than read books. Most want to play on the computer or some sort of electronic devise. I am one of those teenager's that do not like to read. I don't like to read because I find it very time consuming.  I don't have time to sit down and read a book, I am always busy doing chores around the house, working, or practicing for the sports I play. I also find reading a book puts me to sleep, I end up falling asleep a few pages into the book. It would take a lot to get teenagers interested in reading again. You would have to take away all forms of technology and you would have to not let them go outside. That might not even be enough because they may just sit around or sleep. You would probably have to force them into reading.
