‘A book should be an ice-axe to break the frozen sea within us’ By: Franz Kafka

I personally think that Kafka’s quote means that a book should open something new

in our life’s e.g. new ideas, feelings, and emotions. The script should open our eyes and heart. So you can have dreams of how life would be and be in your own world.

 You should feel that you are in the book, living with the characters. You should be having fun when you read and want to know what happens next. The quote I think

means, this sentence, A piece of information should be an ice weapon to vanquishing the paralyzed storm thoughts, emotions, soul, and minds. A book is where you get your knowledge, imagination, and creativity. A book also breaks through a thick wall ignorance unknowing. We are lucky to have the object that answers everything. Humans should use this to wake them selves up, and read a book. If you don’t it is a

waist of your education. I was the person who didn’t want to read by her self UNTIL, my friend inspired me to read one of Jacqueline Wilson’s books when I was 10. I read one and thought it was a really good so I started reading some more. After that I now know what kind of books I like. So this is the age where you should defiantly start reading some books and deciding which ones you like because, in some parts of the world the government made books illegal.

I chose this picture because there’s a book and a axe through it which represents breaking your own knowledge and it represents that you have to read before you get to old and you can’t read anymore. Who knows the government here might say that we are not aloud to read. So read, read, read.
