The 10 Rights to A Reader

Daniel Pennac wrote:
  1. The right not to read

  2. The right to skip

  3. The right not to finish the book

  4. The right to read it again

  5. The right to read anything

  6. The right to mistake a book for real life

  7. The right to read anywhere

  8. The right to dip in

  9. The right to read outloud

  10. The right to be silent


And with these ten rights comes one warning: “Don’t make fun of people who don’t read - or they never will.”
