Congratulations to the winners of BYJU’S ‘One Hobby A Month’ – Reading Contest
“A writer only begins a book. A reader finishes it.” – Samuel Johnson
A fascinating fact about reading books is that they transport the reader to a world of wonder. For only when the reader connects with the characters, they can draw inspiration from them. BYJU’S ‘Reading Contest’ received an overwhelming response. Our inbox was flooded with tons of entries from students telling us about literary characters that taught them a lesson or two about life.
Thank you for sharing your stories. While we received many interesting story entries, we picked the top three based on creativity and storytelling.
Three cheers to the winners,

Dear BYJUs I have read Many books but
Percy Jackson Taught me that I am capable of doing anything
Harry Potter taught me to be loyal and win over evil
Sherlock Holmes taught me to find a way out
I have learnt a lot And Sir Percy Jackson is the best Series I have read till now
Thanks byjus…☺
The story of DIVERGENT, specially the character of Tris prior inspired me a lot.It is a story of totally friction. It shows how an oridenary girl leading a simple life becomes the most toughest and the person who unlock the box of multiple Sims. It motivate me not to give up but to try. She practices a lot to become the member of dauntless and finally come with flying colours. It also shows me that the power of love is supreme nd it can give you strength to overcome every difficulties.
I am inspired by Harry potter’s courage and knowledge
There’s one more book I would like to add to the list…
It’s ‘the black cloud’. It’s not so famous, but very gripping and interesting.

Thank you byjus and team
I have also read the diary of the young girl, the jungle book
and the most motivating of all the 3 books THE STORY OF MY LIFE.
These books taught alot of meaningful lessons about life and it’s
Hardships.It taught me to be brave and courageous and not to lose hope in difficult times.
But I enjoyed the diary of a young girl the most because it relates most of the situations and problems i
That occur in during the period of adolescence.Ihave almost read the entire book 5 and a half times.
I will truly recommend it as it has everything you want from a
entertainment cum comedy movie. I also want to add another book in the list and that is
Misfits, that’s an amazing book too! being form America it was not easy for chole johns to accumulate in the new surroundings of Delhi when she first came to india
but still she showed immense courage in rescuing her friend laxmi’s house from the clutches of Anvi saxena.
This is also a fun book to read.
Can you please….. say me the author of Misfits.
Please…… misfits author name…?
Please say the author name of Misfits
It helps to improve my learning capacity

Hey I didn’t receive any mail about the contest
I read Harry Potter series. The character Harry Potter inspired me a lot and taught me to be courageous and never step back in life whatever the situation may be. Being an orphan, he faces numerous problems but he confronts them all. Inspite of facing hatred from many people, he doesnt get diacouraged and achieves what he deserves. I am very inspired by him. As taught by him, i will never lose my courage nor will i step back in my life.
A book can be a chapter of your life that brings a change in you and for me it definitely has been.
Harry Potter is still my favorite. But Amish’s books are everything

I am also a bibliophile , Book are my first and greatest love 💖💖💖 . Books mesmerises me and I get lost in some other world . My favorites are mostly fantasy because they are beyond the world and are the creators of new world where no one can use us and we are away from all the negative vibes of the world and we don’t get those negative traits and have no impact on us .
Also books are the best source of knowledge and always teaches us something new …… 😘😘
You must add some Sherlock Holmes stuff. I love reading Sherlock Holmes. I am a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes.
