Books or Movies: Which is better?

-

 





Have you watched a movie based on a book as well as read the book? If so, have you asked someone, Is the book better or the movie?" In this passage, I will present my views on whether watching a film based on a book is better than reading the book itself.

First, reading the book can help improve children's reading skills and vocabulary because books can be descriptive and use words that some people don't know about. Next, the book can help with creative imagination. However, books tend to take longer to read and understand, depending on children's reading skills and interest in the story. A child's interest in reading a book depends on the author's style of writing. For instance, I  found reading The Wild Robot easier than reading The Hobbit because it had not very many difficult words as well as clear and short. This is why books are an advantage and a disadvantage.

The movie, however, has audio and visuals to keep the viewers engaged in the story. Movies in one language can also be translated into various languages, so if a person who speaks a different language wants to watch the movie, it will be possible for them to do so. The downside of watching movies is that the movies can be addictive and make children lazy to do other things. Sometimes the movie can also cut parts of the book's plot out and making the movie not seem like the book. These are why the movies based on the book are good and bad.

In conclusion, my opinion is that the books are better. The movies can be fun and entertaining, but books have helped me improve my vocabulary. I started reading small books for kids that were 10 pages long and slowly grew up to read more lengthy books like The Chronicles of Narnia. "The lion, the witch and the wardrobe". Now I have a reading log, and thanks to books, I fill it out every day, and I have made it a habit to read.

  Dear grandpa, My 9th birthday is coming up very soon, so in this letter that I am writing to you, I am going to tell you what I wish to do on my 9th birthday. (from morning to evening). When I wake up in the morning, the first thing  I will do is shout "It's my birthday!" Then I will go brush my teeth like I usually do. Then I will so some chitchatting with my parents for 5-10 mins, and then I wish to head to IHOP (a pancake place) to have breakfast.  After having breakfast, we will go home and I will read a book. In the afternoon, after having lunch which might be paneer and pulav that I'm hoping my Mother will make for me, I wish for my parents to take me to the mall so  I can get a hoverboard, a keychain, a soccer ball, and a LEGO set. After doing those, we will head home so my parents can rest for a while, while they do so I can do some drawing. In the evening we will head to the Living waters church to have some fun, worship, and have a big feast! I am looking...

How does it work - Maglev Train & Scrap Yards

  Have you ever been on a maglev train or worked in a scrapyard and wondered "How do these things work?" I will write about how maglev and scrap magnets get into action. The maglev trains and scrap magnets work by using electromagnets . The maglev train has U-shaped undercarriage which gets attracted by the track due to magnetism, so the train moves along the rails. There are guidance magnets in the train which include magnetic repulsion; they help direct the train to either left or right, or stop the train from crossing the tracks and falling down. The driver is not the only one driving the train! In fact , there are levitation magnets which have computers controlling them in order to slow down the train, keep it on the track, and move the train. In a scrapyard, there will be a crane with the magnet which picks up car scraps. It also has an iron disc which is armored with an electric coil to pick up the scraps. It has a switch to turn on so the magnet works just like ...

Dolphins

  Dolphins are very intriguing creatures. In this passage, I am going to explore some fascinating facts about dolphins. The first remarkable fact about dolphins is that they are really smart. A dolphin's trainer might use hand signals to represent objects. For example, the trainer would throw a ball into the water and signal, "Is there a ball?" The dolphin would respond with a "yes." Then, the trainer might point to a broken vase and signal, "Is the vase broken?" The dolphin would answer "no." Dolphins are intelligent enough to remember the hand sign for an unbroken vase and respond correctly. The another remarkable fact about dolphins is that they can communicate with each other, just like humans. But instead of using English, they rely on motions and sounds to communicate. For example, if one dolphin puts its flipper on another dolphin's back, it means they are friends. If two dolphins jump at the same time, it shows that they are bon...
