«The Book is the source of knowledge». A person who likes reading improves his mind and gains knowledge. There is a proverb “Knowledge is power”. Recently, school children have been carried away by the use of computers and look for information about everything on the internet.

Many children’s books remain forgotten on shelves and children are surfing the internet, downloading their homework or spending their whole time playing video games, even during class. To tackle this situation, the Women’s Public Union “Erayim” has opened the “Book lovers” club in schools to draw children’s attention to books and reduce the pull of the internet. One such example is the school of Abu Ali Ibn Sin in Shark village of the Kara Suu region where the members of “Book Lovers” club have organized an event called “Friends, lets read and love books!” Children’s parents have participated in this event and have learnt to their delight how their children are spending their free time in the “Book Lovers” club. They have listened to the literary works read expressively by their children with great pleasure.
