Report the progress of "Harry Potter" to my sister every day. I read more than a hundred pages yesterday, and my sister looked at me with doubtful eyes. Maybe I’m worried that I won’t finish reading the book before returning it on Sunday. Books cannot be read without being borrowed. Now that I have realized this deeply, my reading speed needs to be improved.
After chatting for a while, I asked my children what they thought after watching the first "Harry Potter". She said: "This entire series of books is based on a sentence from J.K. Rowling to extend the story, which is - courage is the best motivation to overcome fear."
Indeed, the reason why there are so many people around the world As a Harry Potter fan, what you pursue is not only your love for the magical world, but more importantly, you want to make up for your lack of courage to face problems and challenges!
On Sunday two weeks ago, Mr. Lai took his child to the library to borrow books. For the first time, the child felt the value of his student ID card. He originally wanted to borrow 10 books, but his father suggested that it is not about having too many books, but It is important to read each book carefully and to be able to help and understand it. So my child chose "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", which she has always loved. (In fact, I bought the whole set of Harry Potter last year, but she said she couldn't understand it, and the number of pages was too high, so she put it aside. ).
In order to achieve her reading goal in the past two weeks, my sister used all her free time to read, slowly persevering through the uneven page numbers of 10 pages, 20 pages, and 50 pages a day, and put down her little novel. In the short video of Hongshu, I gave up playing with the blind box and immersed myself in it. What reason do you have to break such concentration?
Reflection: You want your children to be able to focus and put down their mobile phones, pay, etc. It is particularly important to cultivate children's interest in reading. All early reading must be selected according to the children's interests, and there should be no interference or questioning. The same is true for us adults. All reading starts from topics that we care about and are interested in step by step.
