READING A BOOK WILL OPEN UP YOUR WORLD.
Bryony ColeNational Year of Reading 2012
What do they all have in common?
And what do they have to do with reading?
They are all places I read about.
Before I visited.
how reading books inspired me to travel
connected me to amazing people…
and helped me explore new worlds.
A book can take you to new places, Without you ever needing to go.
A book can help you escape new places.
Books permit us to voyage through time, to tap the wisdom of our ancestors. – carl sagan
Reading can help you understand new cultures and people
Reading you can travel in the paths of those before you.
Where you will find me at the bookstore
Then all this reading got me a pretty cool job.
Travel writing isn’t as glamourous as it looks.
The internet makes it easy to tell my own story.
humans cannot out-evolve the emotional connection with words on a page- Daniel Wearne
Reading will open up your world.
