According to the Australian Government Council for the Arts, reading is the 'favourite activity for about 61 per cent of Australians aged 15 years and over, according to a 2006 survey by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.'

I agree with this as I make up that amount of the statistic calculations. Reading is a way to get out of the rushes and worries the world holds for us and at least, for a few minutes or a long period of time, just indulge in a great book or magazine.

Not only is it good for fun and as a hobby, but depending on what you read, you can learn a lot. You may find yourself learning a different language if you are reading a book foreign to your own language. It is also a wise idea to get kids into reading as they are able to prepare themselves for their future workloads within their studies.

For those who live on the Gold Coast, visit one of the many branches of the Gold Coast City Council Libraries where a large amount of books are available, not to mention dvds and tapes.

Try reading if you're not in the habit, just for fun or to learn about different places, peope, languages, cooking and anything that tickles your fancy as they say.
