Everybody has his or her own hobby. For me, my favorite
hobby is reading books.

My father was not only a writer but a researcher as well.
He had a great collection of books on many fields:
literature, science, art, fiction and non-fiction. After his
death, I inherited the most valuable treasure which has
been preserved carefully up to now.

As I have a large collection of books of my own now, I
usually spend hours reading and thinking about facts
described in each kind of books. Sitting comfortably in an
arm-chair in the library with a book open on my knee, I
recall my father who was absorbed in his reading,
perusing the poems of John Keats, William Words Worth,
Chateaubriand and Lamartine. I still hear his sonorous
voice reciting rhythmical lines of poems in Kim Van Kieu’s
story while his face was radiant with ecstasy and raptures.

Through books I see many countries rise and fall. Kings
and Presidents pass before my eyes and I can follow the
history of nations. Each book has a story to tell me of
remote countries and strange people.

I am greatly indebted to books indeed. For me a good
book is not only a true companion but also a well-
experienced teacher guiding me through my life. It has the
miracle to relieve my suffering and my hardship and reveal

to me strange and new horizons.

Reading books broadens my mind and improves my
knowledge. Instead of indulging myself in futile
entertainments, I am often keen on reading books which
are always a source of comfort and relief to me and I am
determined to preserve my father’s valuable treasure for
my posterity.

In a few words, the reading of books contributes to the
moral and intellectual formation of a man’s personality.
