I think that we can’t live without books.

When I was a child my parents read them to me. I was pleased to listen to the stories and tales. I learnt a lot of interesting things from books.

Later I could read myself. I like to read about animals, nature and adventure stories.

If I have got time I like to spend it with my favorite book.

All the members of my family like to read. My mother says that books help us in self-education. In ancient times books were written by hand. It was difficult to write a book with a pen. Then printing came into our life. Printing played an important role in the development of literature and culture.

Now there are a lot of books in shops. There are many books in our home. But it is impossible to buy all the books which we want to read. That’s why we get books in libraries.

Sometimes it is difficult to solve some problems of life. I think books can help us. Books must be our friends during all our life.

I liked the novel “The life and adventures of Robinson Crusoe” by Daniel Defoe.

D. Defoe was born in 1660 and died in 1731. When he was a schoolboy, he began to write stories. He wrote the novel about R. Crusoe in 1719 when he was 59. This novel is about a man. He went to sea many times but once the ship broke and all people were drowned. But Robinson could swim. The sea carried him to the shore. But there were no people.

Robinson Crusoe lived on an island for 28 years. He worked all the time and learnt to make many useful things.

I think this novel is praise to human labor and the triumph of a man over nature. Defoe showed the development of his hero.

I am sure that this novel seizes on all generations.”
