I'm forever extolling the virtues of reading to my two oldest grandsons, to little avail. It's far easier for them to play on a Wii, iPod , X box etc. etc. However, this weekend, snowed in and with all available skate boarding locations under nearly a foot of the stuff, and with little access to electronic gizmos in my house, grandson #2 was forced to resort to entertaining himself with a book we bought him for Christmas.
Several hours later, I called him for dinner. Into the room he came, and announced 'Books are really good'. As a warn glow of hope and pride spread over me, he followed up with 'I mean, you don't have to pause them or anything'.
