"With the interest of most of us turning to gadgets over books, 2BOB's Show and Tell Exhibit hopes to achieve a renewed interest in getting back to the good old habit of reading and savouring that experience of being transported into a different dimension through the power of imagination brought about by reading. Simply put, reading is like experiencing paradise in words and silence," Tess Spinks of 2BOB said.
