Absolutely true. If we are able to have access to books, then our lives are enriched, our minds are developed, and our understanding is increased. Well written.

Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
This is a subject dear to the heart of all fanstorians. It is particularly true at the moment, as we can't go anywhere on holiday, so on a good day we forget the restrictions and CHOOSE to be curled up on a chair with a supply of good books.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
You have really made good use of your seventeen syllables in this rousing tribute to books. Reading opens up new worlds for us, takes us to places we will never be.

Comment from Boogienights
Books can take you anywhere you want to go, very well said in just a few words. When I was younger I used to read books about England and all the places to see. My momwas from there, and I feel like I've been there too. I hope you do well in the contest. :)

I like that! It brings to mind me, sitting in my recliner near a window on a spring day. Of course, I'm reading my favorite author and have a cold drink! Well done. Hugs.

Your contest entry is in great form, Chrissy. Your message is loud and clear, too. You are right. Books can take us anywhere we wish to go. Your art choice is a great pairing with your well-chosen words. I like hard back books the best. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

Yes, we are enjoying many "armchair holidays" these days during quarantining. Most people watch films but some of us, do more reading especially on Fanstory! Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from roof35
This is an excellent entry for the five/seven/five contest. Indeed, they do provide armchair holidays as you so cleverly advised. I don't usually give six stars for short poems, but this one deserves the rating.
