Some heartwarming personal stories about the Bush family and their reading habits over at the Washington Post. “George loved to read to our girls and they would actually act it out. He would lie on the floor and read ‘Hop on Pop’ and they would jump up and down on him.”

The main part of the story though, is about Laura Bush’s literacy efforts, which now includes urging doctors to prescribe books for babies.
