After an exhausting class on the bus to come back home, I had this little old lady sitting near me, there were nobody but the two of us. She was silent the whole time and I was reading on my phone, suddenly she asked what was so passionate about what I was reading. I told her that I was re-reading my fav novel. And she was like "so it is a book? Why not reading a physical one?" And I said that this was a webserial only disponible on internet. I'm absolutely sure she didn't know what a webserial is but she nodded nonetheless. After she went " You are still a strong young man and you like reading. You remind me of my last grandson, always on his phone. Unfortunately he do not like reading much, do you have idea on how I could encourage him to read like you?" So I gave her some little tip to maybe bring her grandson to like reading. I swear on every holy thing on this world. Whoever and wherever you are grandson of that sweet grandma, I hope you can take good care of her because she think a lot about you. She made my night and I had to share it.

Grandmas are some of the most wholesome people out there. Or some of the most racist. Or both. It's that one a lot.

That's super cute.

My advice is to never offer rewards for reading. Rewards can spoil intrinsic enjoyment. Help them find something they like and don't force them to read stuff they don't like.

I told the sweet grandma that she should tell her grandson that his favorite show(which are unsurprisingly manga) are released faster on the internet as book with image. Maybe that'll encourage him.
