Reading
“No book is really worth reading at the age of 10 which is not equally worth reading at the age of 50.” C.S. Lewis
I couldn’t stop smiling when I first read the C.S. Lewis’s quote. Turns out he said exactly what I have been thinking for years in a more articulate way that I have been able to say it. I love to read books. Any books. Children’s books. Adult books. Middle Grade books. Young adult books.
A book is a book is a book. And a well written book can (and should) be read and enjoyed by one and all.
