I dunno. Reading for school was never a problem. There ware always at least one or two books on the list that I had read before. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> So I never cared.
Children should discover books again by being very gently shown that there's more than their gameboy, X-box, tv, or wathever.
Before they start going to the movies regular. I remember I always prefered the book over the movie.
Becouse I already formed my opinion about all characters in the book. When you see a movie based on the book later and the director, actor,... changed everything... it just don't fit your idea/fantasy about it anymore. And you don't like it so much.
Movies never can replace the written word becouse your fantasy has to create the chars. while in movies they are shown to you.
