15、a bit, by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isnt one of them. I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad cant read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites
16、and papers for work, but not books. Hes busy so I think sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading.My dad is by no means the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Eve

20、ngs from other peoples point of view, and understand other peoples decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feelingyou really can be inside someone elses head!So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when youre waking up, going to bed, eating too much, or having
