While the TV bombards you with a sensorial experience, showing facts as they really were (or as imagined / mentally constructed by the director), books offer a conceptual description of beings and their universe. While reading we "process" the written information, so that it becomes intelligible, and so that we can relate to the characters and situations they experience. Thus, we are forced, or "invited", to perform a much more complex reasoning and mental constructions. We are, so to speak, exercising our brain while reading.
Also books can "wait" for you while most TVs won't let you.

Young children like my son Jackson, loves watching little Einsteins on Play house DDisney and it is a fantastic start for them before they go to school, and they learn how to count or the ABC's or learn how to work together etc. For adolescents, they learn different things by watching there shows also.

Reading helps you to become a better speller (so you won't misspell "television" and "better" and "than"). It also challenges your mind, whereas all the facts are given to you when watching TV.
