What do you benefit from books ?

Books are very precious to me. Knowledge is not only acquired through lessons in class or in life. It can also be gained through reading books. You know, a lot of stuffs are learned in books. Histroy, general knowledge, most of the stuffs you don't learn from the environment, you learn in books.

hi, mickly08,well ,i think I have been learnd a lot things through books, I like reading books, I like to touch new things, aha, I think this is my charcter,if I have time ,I would like to read books every day, especially history books, I want to tell you , my friend, history is my big favorite.lol , good luck.

I find that I learn about new worlds, new cultures, new histories when I read books. I am transported to attitudes and lives that I would otherwise not have any way of knowing. I love books because they not only teach me new things, they offer me an escape from my current world.

Oh, I've loved books forever. Whatever kind I read, I get something good. I learn new things, reading takes me so many places I could not go in reality, they comfort me, make me laugh, teach me valuable things about life, wisdom, people, lands. I love to read! Karen

Hi. I am a voracious reader. In the past three years, I bought more books than clothes. Books are my precious collection. Based on my experience - books inform, entertain, counsel, and inspire. I was empowered through reading because: 1. I met brilliant authors, saints, great leaders. I learned from their failures as much as their successes. 2. I experienced living in other people's homes, kingdoms, caves, forests, and many others. 3. I traveled different lands, deserts, seas and sky. 4. I practiced several professions such as accountant, lawyer, detective, merchant, etc. I totally agree with this anonymous quote: I've traveled the world twice over, Met the famous; saints and sinners, Poets and artists, kings and queens, Old stars and hopeful beginners, I've been where no-one's been before, Learned secrets from writers and cooks All with one library ticket To the wonderful world of books.
