All are educated but no one is shown reading a book or holding a book. Or even a magazine.

Dadisa occasionally reads newspapers and wants to know about new things.

Even if we are very busy, we try to read at bedtime atleast.

Or surf the net and read online.

Even I have a small collection of books which I am very possessive of😛😆But unfortunately I don't get much time to indulge in the pleasure that comes from reading a book these days.

I still keep buying books don't know if I ever get time to read them

What ever little reading outside of my work I do these days is through e books

From the days at school. When we used to buy new books at the start of the academic year and cover them with brown paper and excitedly look inside what was there in the form of content and pictures.

Getting books as birthday present and as prizes when winning essay competitions.

And then going to the libraries, going to fiction sections.

Buying cheap, second hand books at the roadside.

Opting for ordinary covers than hard covers to save money.

When there is no interesting program on tv, when there is lot of time after finishing all the work, holding a book, reading and then sleep with the book still in hand.

When I was a youngster I used to read while eating and get scolded for doing so.

wrapping papers sometimes contain important news like they show in films. An announcement about a person, a crime.

And also old magazines when waiting for doctor's call.
