Das, Literacy can only help at least leaning on the positive sides of any outcome it may steer some to change. Understanding can direction for good. ! ! !

I think it's a terrific idea, as we know that education is the key to just about everything we want. But the rewards for all that reading - and writing a book report as well - might be too small to inspire a lot of participation from people who struggle with literacy. I would increase them a bit.

J, I like the quote…Reading is very good, I am glad for an elementary school teacher who told mom I should get a library card. I was 7 or 8 years old…to this day I still read. I like this game cause I learn and I learn from others (the comments) too.

The free public library: Open books, Open minds. An American (and hopefully a global) value.

I think this is a great idea! Now give them books on self help and spiritually enrichment
