[LM_NET] SEC: Non-readers to readers

[Laura Pearle <lpearle@GMAIL.COM>]

Dear all,

The Head of our English Department asked me if I knew of any studies that
show how non-readers become readers.  I don't, but I'm sure that at least
one of you do!  Specifically, he's trying to show that reading just about
anything can create a reader, it's not just "Literature" that can make that
change happen.

TIA for your help!
