Expand Your Horizons...Read!

How's that for a motivational title huh?  But seriously, I would like to address the importance of reading, as it has come to my attention that many of my peers (and their parents, for shame!) do not care to read and seem to be more intent on mastering the latest "game app" than doing something that is good for both the mind and the spirit.  Now I admit to holding the world record high score in the Scrabble app, but how do you think I got there?  Not by spending all my time in front of a screen!  Nay I tell you!  Reading a regular old book is where is all begins.  Read the classics - Thomas the Locomotive, Ferdinand the Bos Primigenius, Leap on Patriarch, etc.  In no time you'll be just as smart as my little bro, my wonderful protege, who has taken wonderfully to the good Rev. Awdry's great works of literature.
