    Some people just aren't into reading and you can't change that. Accept that his interests are different and buy him a video.
    Many adults go through life without reading any books. Even with the books I 'read' I only skim through them for the essential parts I need for my references.

    Oh but I really want him to read at least something... he won't even touch a news paper leave alone a book, that's bad enough...

    Just want him to show that reading is not all that boring and can really help

    I know reading is very aggravating to me mostly because I have a hard time with my sight, lighting and keeping my place on the page. I prefer reading things on the computer. Maybe you could find some interesting things for him to read on the internet to get his interest before you go buying any books.
