What are the advantages of books over television?
 There are three ways
 When you find a good story and have time to enjoy it
We should read a few pages to see if it’s the one you can easily read and understand.
 We should check that it is not too difficult
 Television can bring you all the information and stories with color, picture and action
Books are still a cheap way to get information and entertainment
You can keep a book forever and read it many times
