Reading has at all times and
in all ages been a great source of knowledge. Today the ability to read is highly valued and very
important for social and economic advancement. In today’s world with so much
more to know and to learn and also the need for a conscious effort to conquer
the divisive forces, the importance of reading has increased. In the olden days if
reading was not cultivated or encouraged, there was a substitute for it in the
religious sermon and in the oral tradition. In the nineteenth century,
Victorian households used to get together for an hour or so in the evenings and
listen to books being read aloud, But ,today we not only read, we also want to
read more and more and catch up with the events taking place around us.
Reading has several advantages, therefore
