Good books are the source of knowledge and happiness A person is known by the books he reads. books are an index to the mind and the interest of the person. a person who has no library of his own is poor no matter how rich his tangible assets may be. Books are cheap nowadays and one can buy them with small sum of money [somaliland shiling]. in a person buys good books and reads them, he will gain knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is gained by reading. the more good books you read , the more general knowledge you gain. The money spent on books is never wasted, even if the owner doesn't read them, some other people will read them with profit. On the other side, reading a good book is the best entertainment after the day's hard work. it requires no physical labour. it makes the reader forget the worries of the present. good books can be said, they are the source of happiness.
