Reading Online Vs. Reading an Actual Book

 

 

For some people, reading from the computer screen, laptop or tablet may feel more long-winded compared to reading the pages of an actual book. There is a significant difference in the experience of reading online against reading an actual paperback that you borrowed from a library or friend, or a book you bought from the bookstore. At the same time, spending several hours looking at a glowing screen may not be too cozy for some people. Others would think that it’s a shame when there are dozens and dozens of books around the world that are left untouched, not receiving their just due.

It may also seem like people are not reading as much as they used to. With easy access to the Internet, most people will opt to spend several hours hopping on social media websites. If the only thing one does is to look at photos, read other people’s news feeds, and chat online – one cannot truly expect that they’ll put their vocabulary to good use. Neither will anyone gain new insights, ideas, and knowledge.

Reading online can also be worrying for parents with children who spend too much time in front of the computer screen or mobile screens.

Parents worrying about their children are reading should know what material their kids are reading. The key is to get more involved by asking questions. This will make for a better learning experience. Parents should also consider bringing their children to the library or bookstores. Reading illustrated books for children is a good way to enjoy literature at a young age.

Whether you read e-books online or you prefer to read an actual paperback in a comfy nook – reading and connecting with other book-lovers will show you that there is another world out there!
