I Hate Reading

        I Hate Reading by Arthur and Henry Bacon is about kids who hate to read but have to for 20 minutes every day.  Arthur and Henry, who by the way, are friends of mine, give you clues about how to pretend that you are reading, or how to read without really trying.  One example they give is to tell your parents that you have to go to the bathroom and you take your book with you!  Tell your parents that you were in there reading!  If you want to read a really funny book, then I suggest trying I Hate Reading.  You’ll be tricked into reading for at least 10 minutes!
