Answer 1

Just look at the Harry Potter phenomenon. How many people, not just kids, have been brought into the amazing world of books, influenced by just one piece of great writing?
When I was really little, my mother used to read to me ALL the time, so I've just grown up with a love of books. I find it hard to look at a book and not at least read the back of it.
A good book stimulates the mind in my opinion. It does for me, anyway. For example: I recently read 'The Historian', which makes references to Dracula, so then I felt compelled to go read that then, and then I found other books by the same author also about the stories of Dracula, which led me to reading them. It's a cycle. Once I read one book, I see something I want to explore further. Going back to my example I used earlier of Harry Potter, most people I know who read and enjoyed the first book didn't stop there. They read the whole series. And then borrowed my copies of the related comic relief books. And so on. They saw the movies, they gave me a good debate over some of the things in the book.
Hope this helps!
