The reading habit of college students is important for them to become lifelong learners and create reading families in the future. However,related researches still treat the reading experience of college students in isolation. Based on a survey on childhood reading experience,this article tried to explore the relationship among college students’ reading experience in childhood,current reading behavior and the future attitude to children’s education. It used the mixed methods approach of questionnaires and interviews. The research found that(1)college students today generally lacked sufficient childhood reading experience;(2)there were gaps between their current reading behavior and the reading experience in childhood,and the attitude to children’s education;(3)this would adversely affect them to become more active parents on family education. This paper suggested that the college libraries should organize training for students to compensate their deficiency in childhood reading. In this way,the psychological connection between college students and books can be re-constructed positively.
