As a kid, there was something so magical about reading, getting lost in the story. It makes me sad that kids don't seem as interested in reading anymore.

They read, but it is stuff like Harry Potter and Twilight. I'd have to go into my archive, but there was a study done to see if Harry Potter did increase reading among children, and it didn't increase over all. Kids would read only when a new Harry Potter book came out, and not find other books to read in the interim.
