Reading Growth: Reading Creatively (1968)

Discusses the difference between a good reader and a creative reader. While a good reader can understand and remember facts, a creative reader engages with the material critically, questioning and comparing information from various sources. The creative reader not only retains facts but also reflects on them, leading to personal growth and a deeper understanding of the content. Examples include questioning historical facts about Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere, and relating them to contemporary events. Ultimately, the text emphasizes that creative reading involves thoughtful engagement, critical questioning, and the application of knowledge to enrich one’s life.
