I dont really care for reading but I do like to read the comics in the newspaper but I do agree with Rmary it is really negative most of the time. Mostly you'll see it on the front page.

i don't like reading at all.

To be honest I dont read as much as a lot of people do, but if im intersted i will. People or teachers just really cant make me lol.

Hey this is fun!!!! I love to read!!!! It's soooooooooooooo much FUN!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't like to read the newspaper, I think is too negative.

I dont think kids should have to read in the summer we do enough dureing the school year. it will bruse our minds......

Although i like reading the sports I wish you would get a just for kids section,with things that kids have done and kids sports. Also you can put some funny comics and coupons for toys and things.
