2. If yes, what kinds of books do you read? (stories, poems, etc)
3. Now write one or two reasons why you read those books and share with your partner.
 

B. Read the poem.
 

                              Books
What worlds of wonder are our books! 

As one opens them and looks,
New ideas and people rise
In our fancies and our eyes.
The room we sit in melts away, 

And we find ourselves at play 

With some one who, before the end, 

May become our chosen friend.
Or we sail along the page 

To some other land or age. 

Here's our body in the chair, 

But our mind is over there.
Each book is a magic box,
Which with a touch a child unlocks.

In between their outside covers 

Books hold all things for their lovers.

                                                                                                                                    - Eleanor Farjeon
