Why do you need to read as much as you can?

The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go, Dr. Seuss.

1. Reading develops the mind. Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. “The mind is a muscle. It needs exercise. Understanding the written word is one way the mind grows in its ability. Teaching young children to read helps them develop their language skills,” Prince George. It improves our focus, memory, and concentration.
2. Reading expands our knowledge base, builds confidence, and enhances our analytical thinking.
3. It increases your vocabulary and improves your spelling and grammar.
4. Reading develops your writing and communication skills. The more you read, the better writer you will become.
5. Reading reduces stress and anxiety. Reading can lower your stress levels significantly. Just read something that is enjoyable and well written in a calm atmosphere. Reading before bed is one of the most effective activity to do before bed to sleep better at night.
