“Give a man a fish,
and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish,
and you feed him for a lifetime.”
~Ancient Proverb

Annie Lu, High School North
"Any book that
helps a child
to form the habit of reading,
to make reading
one of his deep and
continuing needs,
is good for him
(or her!)."
~Maya Angelou
"Regular reading not only boosts the likelihood of an individual's
academic and economic success
- facts that are not especially surprising -
but it also seems to awaken a person's
social and civic sense."
~To Read or Not to Read, NEA
