When I was a kid, summer vacation meant one thing: All the time in the world to read.
I spent hours perusing the stacks at the library, searching for something new and wonderful.
I read in the porch swing, in the hammock and curled up in a chair in the living room.
At night I read under the covers in my bed.

My children are good readers, but the computer and television compete for their time and attention.
