Hundreds of books and movies are made each year. Both apply to all ages, so why not go for using your intellectual resources? But many people pick a favorite between the two. I personally prefer books. In this essay, we will talk about it. Books or movies, which do you prefer?
Some people feel that movies are better than books. They like how it gives you visual action. A variety of people like to see the story unfold before their eyes. But I think books are better because your imagination isn't limited by actors or sets. With books, you get to choose what the characters look like in your head. How can you grow your imagination if it's always done for you?
Another reason some people like movies is that they only take a couple of hours to watch. Reading can take days or weeks! But that's because books are better for your mind and for your education. Your brain has to comprehend the text. In the end, you engage your brain longer.
People may prefer movies as a form of relaxation. When you're reading a book it takes more work as you think about the words. Movies do the thinking for you. But having a story done more quickly isn't always the best. Books can last longer and pull you in more. Details can be very vivid and even though movies may be fun to watch, books often times contain more major characters and story lines that may be left out of a movie. Some people also find reading relaxing.
Although there are more than 10 million movies in the world, books have been enjoyed for centuries. There are many millions of books in print. In the National Library of Congress alone there are a whopping 141,847,810 books! In conclusion, reading builds your imagination, intellect, and it's just plain fun! So, what's your choice? I definitely think books are a lot better, not only for your imagination, but for your amusement too!!!
