You are in a world all your own. No distractions, no interruptions and, best of all, no re-runs. You don't have a chance to miss the next episode because your book will always be waiting for you. When you read a good book, you become the director. It is your turn to cast the characters and create a set that is all your own.
Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some to be chewed up and digested.
Yet, the characters become your companion for that short period of time, and when you are finished reading, you feel as though you have an emotional attachment to the characters. Reading also improves your ACT and SAT scores. The only way to improve your knowledge, comprehension and vocabulary is by reading a wide range of material over time. The more that you know and read out of the classroom, the better your standardized test scores become. Although teachers diversify classes, much of our education and comprehension comes from reading books.
