Books are to mankind what memory is to the individual. They contain the history of our race, the discoveries we have made, and the accumulated knowledge and experience of many different time periods.They picture for us the wonder and beauty of nature and explain to us its many changes. Books teach us how to face and overcome difficult challenges, and comfort us when we are grieving. Books can change hours of boredom into moments of joy. They fill our minds with ideas and even a few happy thoughts. Like a good memory, a good book is a priceless treasure. If you find yourself bored by a book that educated people regard as important, be honest with yourself. The difficulty is probably not in the book but in you. Often a book, which now seems boring or difficult, will be easy to grasp and fascinating to read when you are more intellectually mature.
