Books will always enjoy the prime position of man’s best friends and this is so rightly said! The habit of reading books should be inculcated amongst children at a very early age. A good book can teach lot of things and also help to improve a child’s imagination. Although online books are very much in vogue and may prove to be useful for people who are doing an extensive research, there can be nothing compared to a book that is bought off the shelf! From classics to fantasy, books are something that should occupy a separate space in your house.
