Reading is an excellent hobby. It should be an activity that should be cultivated and developed in a child. This would allow him to learn more than he does inside the classroom. Reading would bring to him new worlds and new cultures. Knowledge is power, the more you know, the more no one can take advantage of you. So read, read, and read; no matter what reading material it is. What is your favorite reading material?

Very inspiring discussion you have started - knowledge is power, and the more we read - we get to learn more. Regarding newspaper I just leap over the headlines - and occasionally read the entire story; rather magazines are good for acquiring knowledge; but I think paper books are my number one choice for learning about anything new - even in this digital age.

I like paperback books. I can take them anywhere and always have something to read if I have to wait online or something like that.

I love to read so I read everything that has words and even just pictures in it.
I read a book literally from cover to cover and thats from the front cover to the copyrights, and to the barcodes at the back cover. Weird huh? Just something that I do and I feel that a book needs to be enjoyed.
Well, I think the only books that I dont read cover to cover would be textbooks.
Anyway, like I mentioned I read everything from receipts, catalogs, manuals, plate numbers, doodles, etc. Now Im currently reading a book when I have free time in school, Reader's Digest magazine before going to bed when Im not yet sleepy and mangas when Im online.
Favorite reading material I guess would have to be books/pocketbooks since I can bring them anywhere and the stories would be quite engaging.^_^

I read a lot and I read almost anything good to read whether newspapers, books or magazines. I love to read them all because they provide me information about a lot of things.

I read almost anything. However, nowadays it's kind of hard to pick up a newspaper because of all these news about recessions, crises and the likes. Anyway, my favorite reading materials are novels. It helps to escape to a fictional world every now and then.

I just like reading in general, regardless of the format in which the words are printed. Knowledge is the new commodity and it is growing more and more scarce. People are getting more and more information but it's becoming increasingly more difficult to decipher lies from the truth.

I read everything I can find worth reading, billboards, magazines, fliers, newspapers, books and others and among any other reading materials, my favorite is a inspirational book like chicken soup for the soul or the purpose driven life. These kind of book gives me inspiration and motivate me to move on everyday. I always start my day with a God friendly motivation which serves as my food for the soul.
