I just read this article on the importance of reading to children from the Huffington Post.

"While the year is still fresh, and our New Year's resolutions still in mind, make sure yours include reading -- and reading to the young people in your life. It is everyone's responsibility to help shape the next generation. The stakes are high."
Why not set a goal for yourself and your children on the Goodreads 2013 Reading Challenge:
