Books

We have brought some pictures of books too. Books, are the most important sources of knowledge. We have learnt many things from books. As little children, we loved to read fairy tales and other story books.
                 Now we have read stories, poems, histories, repots, biographies, adventures, everything in books. We have learnt about our country, and other countries from books. We have read about things we have never seen or heard before.
                                                           Books give us not only knowledge; they give us entertainment too. The Tales of the Arabian Nights, tell us of strange adventures. They keep us awake with curiosity. Aesop’s fables tell us of folk tales of many lands. The fairy tales delighted us in our childhood. Now we have the Harry Potter Series. Some time back we had the Enid Blyton stories.
                                                    Each religion has its own books too. The Christians have the Bible, the Muslims have the Quran, the Hindus have the Vedas, the Buddhists have the Dhammapadaya. The Mahavamsa, is considered the oldest record of history of Sri Lanka.
                                                  When we are free, we spend our time with books in the library. When we are ill, and in bed how would we spend our time if we didn’t have a story book? Books and knowledge are inseparable are inseparable in our life.
