Books are the rich source to acquire knowledge. The more you have thirst to know and learn or get to know about things, the more you need to search for good books, i acuqired knowledge in too many good things cause my mom inculcated the habit of reading books right from my childhood, it was when i was in my eight standard she got me cartoon books, painting books with soviet women magazine, i was wondering as i could not understand anything out of it, the standard was bit high for me, but my interest stuck in chiromancy-art of learning about people's personality looking at the type of hand they possess, it was interesting and so the interest made me to learn and understand things. Like wise i came to know about the Indian Hindu culture from a great poet Kannadasan by his works on "Arthamula hindumatham" Means meaningful hinduism. I have read volumes of Swami Vivekananda's work, which is very much inspiring. So it is the interest which we should have, in today's world everything can be acheived sitting at home, owning a pc, it that case we are gifted more to know about the books, authors and the publications etc. What lot you need to know, everything is available in the form of books. Pls share your views regarding my topic

One can acculumlate lots of knowledge by reading good books.I think this habit needs to be created from childhood.Good books are good companions too.Its my father who made me read books during my child hood days.I remember those days where i used to wait for a particular day to get a children book from soviet called " Misha".I love that books and still possess some copies of the book. I love to read story books a lot and my favourite author is" R.K.Narayan.Iam a great fan of his writings and special one to mention is " MALGUDI DAYS"

Ya you are right. Reading habit increases the knowledge a lot. We come to know about many things if we have this reading habit. I dont have this habit and also i feel bad for not having this good habit. It teaches us many things and explains us about the happening around. If we have reading habit then we also read many things. But the main problem that everyone finds is the time.

I am a senior high school student. Busy work makes me have no time to read book.
