About This Quote

Literacy is a fundamental life skill, one that serves as a portal to knowledge and a lifetime of opportunity. When someone says that literacy is a basic life skill, they’re saying that learning to read is important because it gives you the information you need to make good decisions. As adults, we all need to be able to read. If you can’t read, you won’t be able to follow instructions or understand what’s going on in your community. It’s also very important for children because it gives them the chance to increase their education and learn leadership skills.
