#BookReview for "Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World" by Maryanne Wolf
Not recommended
Emphasizes need for critical thinking skills. Solution? Make kids read Moby Dick and Middlemarch.
Ironically, poor use of those skills. Many assertions, little support, needs fact checking. 34GB = 100,000 words each day? Wrong. Massive attention span decrease? Wrong.
Subtly encourages religion.
Praises Elon Musk.
Only good takeaway: read to your kids
No other real action steps.
