Nothing quite says it for me like a book does. I just love reading books and trying very hard to pass my passion onto my kiddo. Sadly though she's not as enthusiastic, and yes prefers the convenience of the net!

That is where you are wrong.

The benefits from books is not gathering information, but to develop your brain's imagination and knowledge and logic.

Lets not forget about grammar and vocabulary.

There is plenty of time, but people just do not fancy organizing .

Why waste time in front of the tele instead of reading?

I guess, nowadays, people can't seem to find time to sit down and read a book. I love to read if the book seems interesting for me. Since I don't have access to some books, I just look up the internet for some articles or some E-books.

In today's fast paced knowlegde based life .. reading a book is going to take a major share of your time .. and that what we normally say .. no time ..

Media / Internet provides info at the press of button which previously even needed a year ..
