Books are food for my soul! Pull up a beach chair and stick your toes in the sand as the Jersey surf rolls in and out, now open your book and let your imagination take you away.

Wednesday Wisdom: 5/6/2026

 




Welcome to Wednesday Wisdom


Every Wednesday I will be sharing a book related wisdom quote in the hope of sharing my passion for reading books. I hope that the wisdom quotes spark an interest in reading in your life.




Today's Book Wisdom Quote





Today's Wisdom quote really resonates with how I feel about reading throughout my life journey. I completely agree that children should be encouraged to embrace books and the amazing journeys that reading will take them on. 

As I have grown older, I have become dismayed that books are still seen as something children have to endure while in school. I am glad that my parents encouraged and taught me to embrace books and how reading could enhance my life. 

It really is a shame that sometimes my passion is met with rolled eyes or "oh reading is sooooo boring." Of course, not everyone will become a reader, but for Pete's sake give it a chance, you may even surprise yourself. 

So, the wisdom that I leave with you today is this, give the children of our world a chance to find out that books are more than a drudgery that they have to endure in school, teach them early that books can be so much more ... sigh 😔📖
