I don't think books are JUST a way of preserving thoughts, they are also a way of creating them. I have read so many books that have gave me so many new ideas and new thoughts.
As for what age we should start reading, I believe parents should start reading to there children as soon as there are born if not before. I work in a library and we encourage new mums and dads to join their children at an early age, the youngest was only 7 hours old!
This may sound a bit silly but children can get so much out of books well before they can actually read them. Even just holding a book and turning the pages is great for fine and gross motor development, the board books with different textures are great for sensory development and the bonding experience between a parent and child sharing a book is so beneficial for both of them.
Such an early positive experience of books will also help any child to develop literacy skills, which will of course be hugely beneficial later in life.

Books are a way of stimulating the imagination, developing vocabulary and grammar skills, and having fun! Books take you to magical worlds, just as a movie might, but they make YOU design the scenery in your mind. Books also teach you new things.
My parents started teaching me to read when I was three, and for that I am eternally grateful! Children should read as soon as they can begin to comprehend it. They will do better in school if they are avid readers instead of avid TV watchers!

Preserving thoughts, yes, and stimulating imagination.
We should start reading as soon as possible, and parents should read to their children right away.

As soon as a child can comprehend, start reading. Nothing can exercise the mind or imagination better than reading. I read at least a book every two weeks, my kids love to read.....encourage people to read!
