What is the difference between "him" and "her"?

I'm a bit confused about when to use "him" and "her" in a sentence. Can someone explain the difference with simple examples?
 
“Him” and “her” are third-person singular pronouns used to refer to people, but they differ by gender:
  • Him – refers to a male. Example: “I gave the book to him.”
  • Her – refers to a female. Example: “I gave the book to her.”
Both are object pronouns, meaning they are used as the receiver of an action in a sentence, not the doer.
