Reading is one of the most interesting and useful habits. My children love to read adventure and horror books, while the adults give preference to entertainment and adult stories. A good book, no doubt, is the best companion in our spare time. I remember when I was a child, I used to ask my grandmother to tell some stories of ghosts because I was in deep love with those fantasy characters. Well, those days have gone and now the well illustrated story books have taken the place of the humanely stories. Below are some widely read and interesting story books for kids.
