I am sure that reading really plays a very important role in our life. As for me I try to read books every day. I don`t exactly remember when I began to read. Perhaps I was three or four years old. I know that my first book was a volume of fairy - tells. Now I read a lot of books, dictionaries, encyclopedias, so I can say that reading is a very significant part of my life, because it gives me much knowledge and sometimes a piece of advice. In my opinion reading helps us in every sphere of life.

My favorite book is « The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes» by a well-known great writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. These detective stories were written in 1891 and were firstly published in 1892. They tell us about adventures of a very clever, brave and inimitable detective Sherlock Holmes and his best and true friend doctor John Watson. Once Conan Doyle wanted to kill his character, but his fans didn`t like this idea at all, so he wrote more stories about Sherlock Holmes. In my opinion public loves these detective stories because Holmes differs from other detectives, combination of absolutely different qualities makes him very timely nowadays. I suppose that everyone should read this book, because it is very original, interesting, amusing and exciting. It is very easy to read this wonderful book too.          

Finally I`d like to say that I can`t imagine my life without reading.
