Here's the thing: If reading was so pleasurable for kids then they'd all do it. Most kids don't find it pleasurable, so most kids don't read. You can't force someone to find something enjoyable if they just don't. I tried reading various genres of books as a kid and I just couldn't ever sit there and finish one, it literally made me miserable to read. Now that I'm in my 40s, I actually don't mind reading now and then, but it's still not something I'd choose to do over watching a really good TV show, or listening to my favourite podcast.
Reading, an addiction that doesn't harm self or others. Needs solitude and silence, very rare in this noisy world!👍❤️
