I think it is because adults in the UK are more prim and proper. And in 
the U.S. no one cares what other people think of them. Also maybe there 
is more public transportation in the U.K. where people would be reading 
the books in public. In the U.S. except in big cities, most people have 
cars and read at home. Just my guess.
