My 7yo niece plays with her electronic tablet but also writes me handwritten letters in URDU and demands I write back handwritten letters and send her story books. You don’t GIVE them books. You have to SHOW them it is enjoyable to read. If parents are busy with phone, computer and TV all day, kids would follow.

i agree but the thing is after they reach an age where they see other kids having gadgets, sooner or later they will follow their peer…[not peer o murshid ]…reading book is on a sharp N steep decline, even in the western world. libraries are a true testimonials of that trend.
