I pledge to read as much as I can, as often as I can, anywhere I can.

I pledge to read warnings, instructions, and directions.

I pledge to read a lot.

I pledge to read the Bible, the bulletin, and the backs of cereal boxes.

I pledge to read the headlines, the stories, and the ads.

I pledge to read often.

I pledge to read newspapers, magazines, and flyers.

I pledge to read the first line, the last line, and between the lines.

I pledge to read the fine print.

I pledge to read encyclopedias, dictionaries, and almanacs.

I pledge to read textbooks, cookbooks, and comic books.

I pledge to read top to bottom, cover to cover, year after year.

But most of all, I pledge to read, read, read.
