Learning Challenges: All About Reading

Picture by Daniel Pennac from Learning by HEART

The part of learning by HEART that stands out the most to me is reading. In order to read a lot, I usually have to start by forcing myself to read at least a certain amount per day. After I start this, I usually find myself getting so caught up in my book that I spend most of my free time reading until the book is finished. Unfortunately, then I have to start a new book, which is definitely my least favorite thing about reading. I hate that I don't know the characters yet and I sometimes have a hard time even keeping all the characters apart! 

This is why I like the above infographic so much. I love to reread books because I already know the characters and I understand their relationships. Sometimes I feel guilty for rereading when I feel like I should be reading new books, but this infographic with all of the "Rights of a Reader" shows that a person should be allowed to read however they want, or to not read! I love to learn new things by reading books, but I think it's important to remember that one can also learn new things by rereading an old favorite. After all, every time I reread a book I have new experiences under my belt that will probably change my worldview (and bookview).
