I believe a book is a bike. The reason it’s a bike is that
like a bike a book transports you somewhere. Bikes all have different gears,
you can go fast, peddling hard and actually accumulating a distance, or you can
switch gears peddle like crazy and move not even a foot. For Books their gears
are the genera they are written in. Because when reading, which ever genera it
is depends on how far you will get into a story. For me personally, a fantasy
mystery would be a high gear, I would read through it effortlessly enjoying it
and finishing the book quiet rapidly. But if I read a history book, it would
take me hours to read, and I would probably have worked hard to even finish it.
Books are also like bikes because depending on the make of the bike depends on
how many places you can go. If you have a bike that is old with a handle bar
basket that’s meant for a simple quiet ride around town, but if you get a bike that’s
new and is multi-terrine you could ride the bike all over the place hours at a
time with our worrying about wearing them out. A book is the same way, unlike
what some people believe that new kindles are ruining reading and we over time will
run out of books are not true. Hard cover/ paperbacks give you one book and on
book alone, they are like the old bike simple well used something to hold on
to. Kindles, nooks or any other tablet devise, are just new flash bikes; they
allow you to store many books at once and enjoys them all with one simple device.
I don’t belie we will ever get rid of hardcover/paperbacks because they are
like old bikes people still enjoy to hold on to them and have them for leaser
they love the feel of a brisk ride down the street just like paperback/hardcover
lovers love those books because they have something to hold onto or the way it
feels in their hands or that like an old bike its soft on the eyes. New bikes
will be bold and flashy like kindles, some may not like them because they can’t
read them or they think the old books will be lost . But I believe like old
bikes. Old books will never be forgotten and will still be used.
The thing I personally like most about books is that the take you to new places, like you said. Like riding a bike also, I like that reading a book is a complete experience. They're all different. I agree. This is a great comparison!
ReplyDeleteI think that was a really interesting pick. I completely agree though. When you open a book it's like you getting on the bike, when you start reading it takes you to different places like you said, just like riding a bike. I also like your comparison of electronic books with flashy bikes
