RE: Reading and A Generation Misunderstood

I recently read that by not reading text only books, the imagination is not built. Reading illustrated books like you describe does not allow for imaginative thinking. Basically the reader of those books are told what to think, they don't imagine the world for themselves. Just another crucial piece of brain work being lost...

oooh that's interesting. I do notice that we read purely written box, we imagine a character based on our own understanding but when it's illustrative, well, we already know how do they look like and etc. It's honestly a bit complex & it's kinda sad too that our (including myself) is also labelled educated illiterate.
