You forgot the parentheses (), and are returning a reference to the
function instead of calling it and returning its result. Do this:
contents = file_object.read()
Also, consider using snake_case instead of PascalCase for your
function name, since the latter is typically used for classes, and
perhaps call it read_file to better describe it?
