Five Reasons Scribd Is the Perfect Gift for Bookworms

“A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, said Jojen. The man who never reads, only lives one.”

George RR Martin, a Dance with Dragons

When you think about books, what immediately comes to mind? Are you a voracious reader who cannot bear to be without the words on the page that transports you into another life or world? Were you the kid who nabbed your dad’s flashlight and read far into the night? Ah, what joy a good book can bring into your life! Some have said a book is a poor man’s vacation as you can literally go anywhere as long as your mind is open to the script you are reading. It is no wonder psychologists, teachers, parents and other experts agree that children who read tend to do better in school. As corny as it sounds, a book is like a tool that opens the mind like a colorful parachute.  Just like a hammer is a must have tool for the builder, Scribd is a tool for the avid reader. With the holidays upon us, Scribd makes a wonderfully thoughtful gift to the book lover on your list. This perfect gift for bookworms post is sponsored by our friends at Scribd. Here are 5 reasons you should gift Scribd:
