Reading Activities


Site: Scholastic. Read every day, lead a better life.
This Scholastic site has a lot of books, they look very interesting, they are colorful, these books are especially for kids, however, I think that the content is so interesting, and updated that I could be for adults too.
The book can be read, watched, or listened; it also provides tests in which you can find questions about the characters of the story, and what is going on in the story.
