Books are great. They're better than movies and/or TV because you get to imagine the details, even if the details are provided by the author. Does that make any sense? All I can think of is The World According to Garp. I read the book before I watched the movie (both were great). However, the book had a picture of Robin Williams on the cover. He did a super job in the movie but I would have liked to have envisioned Garp for myself. Instead, I couldn't get Robin Williams out of my head as I read the book! Oh well. Here are some of my thoughts about some of the books I've read.
A Bear Called Paddington
Flatland
