Dahl thinks that television harms children's imaginations and does not promote the growth of wisdom. He also believes that books are the only means of promoting wisdom and stimulating children's thinking.

<h3>Why does Dahl think this?</h3>
  • Because children's TV programs are not informative.
  • Because TV shows deliver ready-made thoughts and don't help kids create them.
  • Because TV is addictive and takes up time that can be used with other media.

For Dahl, television is harmful because of its inability to stimulate creativity and thought. He said that this was due to TV's ability to deliver ready-made thoughts, highly processed and often manipulated information. For him, books were more stimulating, as they promoted reasoning, searches for information, and logical thinking.

It is common for many people not to agree with this opinion, mainly because many TV shows are based on books and can deliver educational content.
