Some people think that children should learn to read from traditional paper books. Others feel that it is fine to start the reading process on an e-reader (like a Kindle or iPad). Discuss both views and give your own opinion

In the wake of digitalisation various types of gadgets
such
Linking Words
 as personal
computers
Use synonyms
 and
tablets
Use synonyms
 are rapidly replacing authentic
paper
Use synonyms
 means of information storage and
children
Use synonyms
 become tech-savvy since their first days.
While
Linking Words
 some feel that it is still possible for
children
Use synonyms
 to learn to read using electronic devices, I side with those who believe that hard copies of
books
Use synonyms
 are indispensable in
this
Linking Words
 endeavour. On the one hand, it could be argued that
tablets
Use synonyms
 and
computers
Use synonyms
 make the process of learning, especially reading, much easier and more convenient. Some people think that
such
Linking Words
 devices are better than
books
Use synonyms
 in that they are thinner, lighter and numerous files can be stored on them.
Thus
Linking Words
,
for example
Linking Words
,
children
Use synonyms
 would find them handy and would be able to carry their
computers
Use synonyms
 and
tablets
Use synonyms
 everywhere, so that the process of learning would not be interrupted.
Also
Linking Words
, e-readers are considered helpful as they sometimes provide instant access to dictionaries, which, in turn, would allow
children
Use synonyms
 to find a proper meaning of a word and its contextual utilisation. By and large, some people feel that
children
Use synonyms
 might benefit from the same functions of electronic gadgets, that adults find useful.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, personally, I believe that traditional
paper
Use synonyms
books
Use synonyms
 are irreplaceable.
Firstly
Linking Words
,
paper
Use synonyms
 is natural for people’s eyes and,
as a result
Linking Words
,
children
Use synonyms
 are less likely to develop certain diseases connected with vision and sight.
Moreover
Linking Words
,
for instance
Linking Words
, nowadays special
books
Use synonyms
 with enlarged letters are being published for young readers and can be found in almost any bookshop.
Secondly
Linking Words
, even though
books
Use synonyms
 do not have virtually any ‘advanced’ functions, in comparison with
tablets
Use synonyms
 and
computers
Use synonyms
, it is a positive factor as
children
Use synonyms
 are safely denied the opportunity to get distracted by surfing the Internet or watching videos.
Consequently
Linking Words
, in my opinion,
children
Use synonyms
 would learn to read faster and more effectively if they used hard copies of
books
Use synonyms
. In conclusion,
although
Linking Words
 electronic devices make reading more convenient and provide a lot of supplementary functions, traditional
books
Use synonyms
 do not have a detrimental effect on
children
Use synonyms
’s health and do not allow for distraction.
Therefore
Linking Words
, on balance, I firmly believe that
children
Use synonyms
 should embark on reading with
paper
Use synonyms
books
Use synonyms
 in their hands.
