Introduction to the Power of Reading

The Power of Reading 


Books: Readers are Leaders! Reading activates your mind, unlocking new skills, passion, knowledge, beliefs, and amazing possibilities!


The Key To A New World


Many successful people claim that books are the main reason they were able to accomplish such incredible things. For example, founding father Ben Franklin was just a poor boy from Boston until he realized the power of a great book! His love of books brought him to Philadelphia where he worked at a printing company, learned how to write better, and even started a library! At this library, he met other smart people and eventually started the United States of America with his new friends by putting all this knowledge together! So without the power of books and reading, we wouldn’t all be here together today in this great country!


Knowledge Is Treasure


Although you learn a ton of great things in school, nothing compares to all the treasure you can find in a good book. There are things that everyone needs to learn and that’s what school is for but there are also other things you can learn on your own through books that make you a smart, successful person. Those treasures include new skills, hobbies, life lessons, great stories, and understanding the journey of other successful people. For example, Elon Musk spent up to 10 hours a day every day as a child reading. His love of Science Fiction books inspired him to create Tesla and SpaceX plus he taught himself computer coding and everything else needed to start these companies by reading books. This proves that not only can books make you smarter and more skilled, books also help you find your passion which is the true treasure!
