What Are The Benefits Of Reading For Your Brain?

Did you know half of Americans haven't yet ONE book in the last year? Or the average number of books read per person in ONE year is 4 books or less? This is very alarming. There are SO many benefits of picking up a book and reading for your brain. Even if it's just 5 pages a day.
