Just a bit to add.
I'm not one of those freakily fast readers in the thousands like was posted above me.
These lessons only lasted something like 4th and 5th grade.
But it did help out overall.
During the summer they would have those summer reading programs where you would get a prize for every 10 books you read.
It never failed, I would have to have my father write a note so I could be allowed to check out more than the maximum amount of books set for my age limit.
I would check out like 10 Hardy Boys books and if I remember correctly they would be 100+ pages.
Anyway, I'd go home and have them all finished that night.
I'd return to the Library and they would call my father to ask if I had really read them all...once that happened for the first 10 books and I got my prize they didn't bother me the rest of the summer.
