In Israel people reportedly read about 60 books a year on average. The huge gap between the two peoples' reading habits speaks volumes about the necessity of raising the public's awareness of developing good reading habits.

And despite the slight increase in the number of books read on average, it is a worrying trend that more and more Chinese adults engage in casual and superficial reading.
