“Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.”
Groucho Marx
Books make you forget about what’s happening around you. Books can take you to a dark forest at midnight where you see something in the bushes. Books make you live in another world. You might not like books, but it’s because you haven’t read the right one… yet. Today I’m going to tell you about the different genres of books, Other ways to find books you might like, and why I like books.
Genres
There are many different genres of books. Genres are different books categorized by the style or what the books are about. Some of the different genres are Nonfiction, fiction, fantasy, Mystery, Horror, along with many more. Nonfiction are real things. They can teach you about something that happened in the past, and fiction is things that the author came up with. Mysteries are some of my favorite books because you don’t know what’s going to happen. Horror books are books that are scary.
Other ways to find books that you like
If you find a book that you like, then you can look at the author’s name and find other books they have written. You can also find other books that are similar to the one you liked by looking at the William Allen white books, John Newbery Medal, and Sibert Medal.
Why I like books
I like books because it allows me to forget what’s happening around me. It transports me to another place, another time. You can be in medieval times fighting in a war or riding a magic broomstick. Books allow you to go wherever you want to go and learn whatever you want to learn. You can find almost anything in a book. There are so many different types of books that you will be able to find a book that you like.
