Can Books Change Lives?


by Henry McLaughlin @RiverBendSagas


Can books changes lives? We all know the Bible can.

But what about fiction?

Thinking back on my own reading experiences, I would have to say yes. Reading awakens me to the beauty and strength of words and stories. Stories transport me to worlds I never knew and other places I have no way of knowing. They open my eyes to the ways of people of different cultures and time periods. Books fueled a life-long desire to learn. I know I’m a different person because of books.
