I know, it is really sad. I think it just looks odd to them because how many other kids will want to read like that.
I went to the school for lunch last week. And I saw it. My son was reading and eating. The other kids were barely able to sit in their chairs. They was all asking me to either get water, or go to the bathroom etc. So yes my DS stood out like a sore thumb he was quiet as a mouse sitting there lost in his book. The kids do not get much time to read so when he is allowed that is what he wants to do. They get 15 minutes of silent reading. That is nothing. I bet it is torture though for most of the other kids LOL
