If you read, your kid probably will want to, too.

I think what’s different now though is that parents have to be intentional about getting their kids to read. Mine are also readers but I still help them pick out books (at 9 and 11), I take them to the library every week, I set limits on screen time, still read aloud to them sometimesd, etc. when i was a kid I would just devour anything. A love for reading just “happened” more so than it does today I think
