Which is better: a book or an e-book?
Some people even today believe that the Earth stands on three elephants and that the book should be made of paper. But there are people with another point of view. They think that e-books are better than paper books. I agree with the people who are for e-books.
And now I want to explain why e-books are better. Firstly, I would like to stress that e-books have a comfortable screen. We can change the front size. If we have a bad eyesight, it is very useful. Secondly, to have e-books is rather cheaper than every time to buy a new paper book because, if you buy an e-book only once, and then you do not spend a penny. Thirdly, you can take your e-book with you wherever you go. It is also useful during long journeys. Paper books may be large and heavy, and you can’t take a lot of such books with you.
But I can’t but mention that e-books also have their disadvantages. And one of them is that the e-book can get discharged. Besides, if you lose your e-book, you will lose all the books that were on it, which you wanted to read.
But, if you lose a paper book, you can buy the same one again. Even if you take care of the e-book, it can break while the book made of paper can’t break, but you should keep in mind that its page it can torn.
In conclusion, I would like to say that, taking all this into consideration, I, nevertheless, consider that the e-book is much better. But, of course, tastes differ.
