I watched Chris
Higgs interview about how he got interested in literature. Chris as a kid never
liked reading, he would go to library and takes the book home but he never read
them until he got obsessed with Jim Morrison and starts reading all of the books
that Jim Morrison has read. Chris didn’t
do well in high school and as he said he always cheated or tried to skip school
as much as he could. Researching about
every little details that Chris didn’t know in these books helped him learn a
lot and enjoy reading much more. Now days when he goes to book store to buy
books he only looks at the author’s last names because he knows which authors
works interest him.
I
can relate Chris’s relation to literacy to myself because I’m not a reader
unless I read about the topics that really interest me. For example I like to
read everything about Chelsea football club otherwise I get bored and
distracted. Also parents play a big role in giving the kids the habit of
reading.
