Anyone who believes that teenagers no longer read has it all wrong, according to Christi Showman Farrar at the Woburn Public Library. She said because reading is a lonely activity, adults don’t always realize that teens do enjoy it.
“Teens have so much going on today between all of the out-of-class activities that it may seem like they aren’t reading,” said Showman Farrar. “But they do manage to read. We just don’t see then are at home.”
Showman Farrar runs the summer reading program at the library and said there are 85 readers this summer. “So far they have logged 1,200 hours of reading,” she said. “Last year I challenged them to read 1,000 hours and if they did I would dye(染)my hair pink. I still think there is some pink in my hair.
Teens are allowed to read anything they want. A popular book series like Harry Porter or Twilight certainly gets kids and teens reading. As long as she can get what teens are interested in in their hands, they’ll read. “I truly think there is something out there for everyone,” said Showman Farrar. “Adults define(定义)reading as sitting down and reading a novel, but that doesn’t interest everyone.”
“So much of teen life in online and teens have become used to reading online,” she said. “I think the best way to get people to read newspapers would be to cover events that they are interested in.”
Nicole Gariepy, a junior, said she likes to read a newspaper if it includes more articles about things she is involved with. She enjoys reading fiction books, or anything with a good story. “I probably read about 10 hours a week,” she said. “I like reading because it gets you thinking a lot about other ideas and it’s another way to learn.”
Mikayla Essigmann, another teen volunteer at the library, said, “I like everything. Reading is a good way to pass time.”
