By reading for pleasure you’ll not only develop personally, and become a better person. It’s also good for educational purposes, especially when we manage to get kids to love reading books.

Supporting a child’s love for reading is one of the best things you can do for them. By giving them this gift you support both their educational and emotional needs.

Lenny Dutton created this infographic using Pikochart, a popular online infographic creator. It’s the single most useful tool to turn interesting data into an amazing, professionally looking visual. Many libraries use Pikochart to promote their services to communities.
