7. Give the Gift of Reading This Holiday Season: Build a Children's Book Library in Every Room
NEW YORK, Nov. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Give the gift of reading this holiday season and turn kids into avid readers by keeping children's books in every room of the home. The reason for having more books at home is found in a sneak peek of data from the soon to be released Scholastic Kids & Family Reading Report™: 6th Edition from Scholastic (NASDAQ: SCHL), the global children's publishing, education and media company. The data reveals that children ages 6–17 who are frequent readers – those who read books for fun 5 – 7 days a week – are far more likely to have more books in the home than those who are infrequent readers – children who read books for fun less than one day a week. More than half (52%) of frequent readers have more than 100 books at home while just about three-quarters (73%) of infrequent readers have fewer than 100 books. The sneak peek also reveals where children's books are found in homes nationwide – as well as top book series suggestions from parents.
