Laurina Bragdon is Fond of Reading Books

Laurina Bragdon has been reading books since her
high school years. At first she liked reading
fiction and later, she started exploring
different non-fiction genres. She believes that
reading non-fiction gives us a better
understanding about thought process of great
thinkers and tells us about a wide range of
real-world topics that fiction rarely covers.

From the varied genres in the non-fiction books,
she likes reading the ones that relate to
history, traveling, science and biographies. The
biographies of great men and women of the world
have many lessons that we can learn from and
help improving our lives. Laurina Bragdon
mentions that ever since she bought an e-reader,
her passion for reading books has intensified
even more.

Instead of carrying around big books with her,
she can simply carry a single device which
contains almost all of her library. She mentions
that she likes reading books while traveling, but
it was very difficult for her to take books with
her earlier. Now with her e-reader, she can read
multiple books in the course of a single
vacation. She also thinks that children these
days need to develop a habit of reading books as
they are too busy with online games, social media
websites, and television.

Reading books can help children in developing
their imagination and also give them a better
understanding of various concepts. One of the
most important benefits of reading books is that
it improves vocabulary and reading comprehension.
Presently, Laurina is reading Dreams from My
Father A Story of Race and Inheritance written
by President Barack Obama. Since Laurina speaks
fluent Russian, she would like to read War and
Peace in itsoriginal language in order to
enhance her Russian reading skills.
