उत्तर
A book is a storehouse of information. It helps us to know the meanings of difficult words. It tells us interesting things and provides us happiness. It is an ideal companion/friend especially when we are lonely. A book's worth can be measured on the basis of the knowledge it has and the joy it provides.
