Reading a
book
 is one of the most beneficial things we can do in our free time. Many people believe that one who reads a
book
 has better
imagination
 and
language
 skills than the one who does not. I completely agree with the statement and
this
 essay will discuss about the same. There is no denying the fact that people like to watch TV more than reading a
book
. A majority of people prefer to watch a movie or a TV series than reading a
book
. Many people believe that reading makes them sleepy.
However
,
book
 readers know that reading not only improves our
imagination
 but
also
 improves our vocabulary, it
also
 heals a broken heart. There are many good books available in the market which not only motivate us, but
also
 tell us different ways to be successful. A
book
 fills our minds with beautiful thoughts and improve our
imagination
 power. Every successful motivational speaker is fond of reading books.
For instance
, in a recent survey conducted by a private organization, it was found that people who are fond of reading books can speak for longer duration as compared to the people who are not, in front of a crowd. Along with the
imagination
, it improves our
language
 skills by improving our vocabulary. In conclusion, reading is the best source for improving
imagination
 and
language
. TV is a great source of entertainment and keep us updated with the entire world, but it does not improve our
language
 skills. We should read books in order to have a positive and healthy mind and we should encourage our children to do the same.
