“There is no friend as loyal as a book”. – Ernest Hemingway
To promote excellency in constructive reviews and imbibe in students the art to appreciate literature, Vidya Vikas Academy in a very novel way organised a book review activity, titled ‘Books Our Best Friends’ for the month of September for the Classes 6 to 8. The students were given a wide time span of thirty days to read a book of their choice.
In this ubiquitous pandemic where most of our young minds are glued to the screens it was an effort to kindle in the students the true crux of delight in holding a book and reading it. The students were given a worksheet to fill in their appraisal/critic views about the book they have read. Our young book appreciators have truly given the best supporting statements to their constructive reviews. Joseph Addison has rightly said, “Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body”.
