| | Nacidos para leer | Explanation:
Hi davieli,
I am under the impression, that this is directed at parents so that they encourage their children to read as soon as they have this ability. I don't see anything at all wrong with "leer".
What does make me hesitate though is "Nacido", since the masculine ending may be less attractive to parents of a new-born baby girl. Therefore, I would suggest "Nacidos", since the plural form can apply not only to both sexes but also to both parents.
Suerte y sonrisas,

| Grading comment Muchísimas gracias por su ayuda. De todas la sugerencias (que me han parecido muy válidas), he elegido la suya ya que se adapta al contenido del folleto que estoy traduciendo. Y el plural para 'nacidos' es lo más adecuado.

3 mins confidence:  peer agreement (net): +3 | born to read Nacido para la lectura
Explanation:
Nacido para leer sounds as if the newborn was to do the reading, but I think parents are supposed to read, thus my option.
Good luck!
