| | Rickman really recommends reading
Alan Rickman (Professor Snape) will be featured next month on a yet-to-be unveiled poster to promote children’s literacy for the American Library Association’s READ program.
You know, I’ve seen those posters in my local library. I’ll have to keep a look out for his!

Well, some kids might disagree, when Professor Snape tells them to read  On the other hand, some kids might not Quote: The Rock Says Read!
You can’t deny the popularity of wrestling. So, join the masses and promote reading while you’re at it. This bookmark features a #1 best-selling author—The Rock—who just happens to think that reading is really cool. A sure hit for teens, and a wonderful way to encourage more people to come to the library. The reverse side is blank for you to stamp the information of your library.
Ooooh ....... this is awesome. The Rock reads books
Well, I´ve always known that behind that handsome cover of his he´s got loads of intelligence, not to mention his sence of humour

| That's great to hear. I can't wait to go to the library and see Alan staring at me from the wall urging me to read which I most certainly will seeing as how I'll be in a library . |

Cool! Reading's great fun, yet lots of people these days don't bother. It's great that he's going to promote it.
