“Reading can be a road to freedom or a key to a secret garden, which, if tended, will transform all of life.”

“It is not enough to simply teach children to read;
we have to give them something worth reading.
Something that will stretch their imaginations-
something that will help them make sense of their own lives
and encourage them to reach out toward people
whose lives are quite different from their own.”
