My favorite hobby is reading books, especially books that tell stories about historical figures like Albert Einstein, Albert Schweitzer, Napoleon Bonaparte, etc. I started reading about it when I was 8. Once, I was in the primary school library, my eyes met a book that caught my attention. It was a book about Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of America, in a series called "Stories told about world-famous people". I decided to borrow it, and when I was free, I read it and surprisingly, it was amazing! After finishing reading the book, I came back to the library then returned the book, and tried to find more books in the same series. Unfortunately, I just found one more, about Marie Curie, the first woman in the world to win the Nobel Prize. I went to some bookstores and I finally found two more! One is about Helen Keller, the other is about Jean-Henri Fabre. I usually read books alone in my room twice a week, mostly in the evening when I'm free from school and homework. I find it relaxing and peaceful when I'm all alone, in my lovely room, the wind blows in my room from outside, the crickets sound, and the smell of the flowers in my garden. Read book is not boring like some people said, it gives us a lot of knowledge, and in my opinion, it brings us some comfort and peace after a long day dealing with lots of work.
