A book is an item made of printed pages bound with a cover. Like food gives strength to our body, books give knowledge to our mind. There are many books written on a wide range of subjects such as arts, literature, science, law and philosophy. They provide us with knowledge. We begin our association with books from our childhood. Those who do not read books are not knowledgeable people. They have a very poor knowledge about life. Some books are written by great authors and valued as priceless treasures. Therefore, books are the most reliable friends of mankind.
