I think that kids want to do what they see their parents doing... I hate reading aloud (not fond of talking in general, probably a side-effect of having had chronic severe tonsillitis for over 15 years) and read to my kids the bare minimum I could get away with. However, I am a voracious reader, and all three of my children learned to read between five and six, read constantly (keeping them in books can be challenging), and the older two are both in the 99th percentile for reading.
