I must say, that bit about the different way avid readers acquire knowledge is spot on. I notice I process information and connect facts in a different way than some of my friends who rarely even read road signs (I keed). I think it's also important to be read to as a child, as it helps them to process language colloquially as well as in a more...I don't want to say formal, but...written words are much more enriched than the common everyday speech. I could go on and on about that topic, what with seeing the effects of writing tutoring that I've done and what I've learned myself from it (I think sometimes I learned more than those I was tutoring! Probably not something I should admit! :P).

I found this entire entry very educational. ;)
