I have always maintained that my interest in comic books and tabletop roleplaying games are what lead to my interest in reading and the arts. And history, math, science, et.al.! It certainly wasn't public school! I have always supported the notion that kids should be urged to read comics as early as possible, and that it is a hobby with nothing but good to offer - an interest in reading, visual arts, superheroic ideals to which no one can truly adhere but should strive to do so, anyway.
Kids Read Comics is a free event in Dearborn, Michigan the 13th-15th of this month, and is designed specifically to get kids not only interested in reading comics, but in drawing, writing, and creating them too! It hosts a bevy of talent and tons of great events. Kids Read Comics is also a great way to spend some family time.
