“The best effect of any book is that it excites the reader to self activity.”
“Curiously enough, one cannot read a book; one can only reread it. A good reader, a major reader, and active and creative reader is a rereader.”
“I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn't be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage.”
“It takes a great reader to make a great book. (Creative Self-Publishing)”
“If we weigh the significance of a book by the effect it has on its readers, then the great children's books suddenly turn up very high on the list.”
“Fiction is the best the self-help book.”
