My hobby is reading I read story books, magazines, newspapers and any kind of material that I find interesting My hobby got started when I was a little boy I had always wanted my parents to read fairy tales
And other stories to me Soon they got fed up with having to read to me continually So as soon as I could, I learned to read I started with simple ABC books Soon I could read simple fairy tales and stories Now I just read about anything that is available
Reading enables me to learn about so many things I learned about how people lived in bygone days I learned about the wonders of the world, space travel, human achievements, gigantic whales, tiny viruses and other fascinating things The wonderful thing about reading is that I not have to learn things the very hard way For example, I not have to catch a disease to know that it can kill me I know the danger so I can avoid it Also I not have to go deep into the jungle to find out about tigers Out I can read all about in a book
Books provide the reader with so many facts and so much information They have certainly helped me in my daily life I am better equipped to cope with living Otherwise I would go about ignorantly learning things the hard way So I continue to read Reading is indeed a good hobby
