More numbers

I wonder:

  • How many school-age kids regularly see a parent or role model reading, be it Rolling Stone, Sports Illustrated, the NYTimes or the PennySaver  
  • How many books kids have at home
  • How many cable channels kids know by name and number 
  • If children watch TV or listen to the radio with adults 
  • If they are read to, even if they can read already

Modeling the behavior we want to see is so important.Â
