Online Books and Reading MaterialA recent study found that people who read are two and a half times less likely to be diagnosed with Alzheime's Syndrome later on in life. Although this does not mean that reading will prevent the disease, it proves a slight relationship between reading and prevention. Unbelievable Facts.

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Considered one of the Great American Novels, studied by serious literary critics, banned by the Concord Public Library as trash more suited to the slums than to intelligent, respectable people, and banned in New York by the Brooklyn Public Library because Huck "not only itched, but scratched". You probably have seen it in film, may have watched it on stage, and most likely have heard the music. Now, read the book, the entire book. I dare you!

Enchanted Barn, The
The Enchanted Barn is one of my favorites from Grace Livingston Hill. This story about a girl who has the courage to take her mother, brothers and sisters to live in a barn for the summer, since she cannot find a house or room that she can afford on her salary. How the barn is transformed into a lovely home is a pleasure to read.

Little Prince, The
Antoine de Saint-Exupery, who is was a french author, journalist and pilot wrote The Little Prince in 1943, one year before his death. The Little Prince appears to be a simple children's tale, some would say that it is actually a profound and deeply moving tale, written in riddles and laced with philosophy and poetic metaphor.
