REACH FOR THE STARS
BOOKS ARE COOL
BOOKS ARE FUN
BOOKS SHOULD BE READ
BY EVERYONE
BOOKS ARE COOL
BOOKS ARE FUN
BOOKS SHOULD BE READ
BY EVERYONE
It's time to visit
your library
there you can borrow
BOOKS for free
BOOKS for the young
BOOKS for the old
in BOOKSHOPS
BOOKS are bought and sold
BOOKS on poetry
BOOKS about sports
BOOKS tha are long
BOOKS that are short
BOOKS for girls
BOOKS for boys
with sound effects
that make a lot of noise
BOOKS about ships
BOOKS on planes
BOOKS about cars
BOOKS on trains
BOOKS on animals
BOOKS on religion
BOOKS that give you
INSPIRATON!
BOOKS with Witches
casting spells
BOOKS that you can
scratch and smell
Picture BOOKS
that have no words
BOOKS on insects
BOOKS about birds
Autobiographical BOOKS
portraying someone's life
fictional BOOKS
putting you on the edge of a knife
Horror BOOKS
with a sting in the tale
BOOKS for people
who read in Braille
BOOKS on romance
BOOKS with passion
BOOKS on the famous
BOOKS on fashion
BOOKS on war and outer space
BOOKS about the people
of the human race
BOOKS that teach
You how to cook
You can even get books
BOOKS about BOOKS
Text BOOKS are used in education
they are filled with information
If you really want
to succeed
choose the right BOOK
and start to read
REACH FOR THE STARS
And you'll discover
Now digest that BOOK
from cover to cover.
Because...
BOOKS ARE COOL
BOOKS ARE FUN
BOOKS SHOULD BE READ
BY EVERYONE
BOOKS ARE COOL
BOOKS ARE FUN
BOOKS SHOULD BE READ
BY EVERYONE

Books are really cool. You can find anything you want there.

Well, books in my point of view, are an important thing.
Every person must read, touch, smell, and feel a book. That way we can dream, feel more and have a possibility to be happy.
