Some people never pick up a book to read after their formal education; what a waste! I heard that if you put your arm in a sling for six months without using it; it will atrophy. What do you think will happen to your brain if you don't read challenging, thought-provoking or stimulating books in a year? You cannot think more deeply than your vocabulary will allow you to.  (Robert Niederholer) At the end of the day a man’s most valuable possessions are his books and journals which contain not just chronicles of the days lived but his greatest insights and deepest thoughts plus his reflections upon the collected books and upon his life.  (Andrew Eyeoyibo) Reading can make you a more interesting individual.

A review by Grahame Howard*, author of the popular children's series - 'The Wishing Book' " If you are not a reader, you soon will be after reading this very good book from Yomi Akinpelu.

It will also bring encouragement to dust that book off and make time to read it. It will bring you immense pleasure as you just allow Yomi to show you the way to enjoy reading.
