For many kids becoming a lover of reading and writing is immensely difficult, however; it typically seems to only takes reading one book, reading one play, or doing one assignment to initiate the passion for the literary arts. Being able to see the world from more than just one observation is part of the reason people are beginning to see the necessity for literacy in our current society. Furthermore, I wasn’t able to develop the passion for writing until I was in fourth grade.
