Why don't you ask me what I think about reading books? I have to say that books have been my best friends for many years. I don't have any sisters or brothers. I'm the only child in my family. My mother and father were always busy ať their work. Naturally, I spent a lot of time playing with my toys. From time to time my friend Maria visited me. She used to bring me interesting books and we read them together. My parents gave me very good books too: fairy tales, classics, science fiction. Some of them were written ages ago but they are still interesting for people in my generation. I believe that books will never disappear. They will exist forever — either in paper or electonic form.
