9) For the price of a movie with your family, you can buy FOUR different books (unless the movie was free . . . and even then, if you get food . . . well, you know what I mean!).
8) You can read a book over and over, enjoying it again and again.
7) Nobody complains if you talk in the middle of the story.

4) Your other books will have new friends to play with!
3) Your kids will actually WANT to keep talking about their books!
2) You can drag the excitement out for days . . . or weeks . . . of for readers like me for years!
1) You get to see the excitement on your kids' faces over a new book, and suddenly feel like you might be doing something right!
