I love to hear authors talk about how to get children to read (and enjoy it) - it almost feels like preserving culture. My kids do enjoy books, but often prefer to download an audiobook on their iPods rather than sit down with a hard copy. However, there are a few genres that they'll borrow my Kindle to sit down and read. My son loves political thrillers, and incidentally will read anything by James Patterson. Right now he's halfway through 'Operation Downfall' by Daniel McNeet and keeps saying "DAD! You have to read this!" Makes me proud.
