The World Book
Day and the Copyright Day are held each year on 23rd April. However,
in the United Kingdom, World Book Day is held annually on the first Thursday in March. They
are organized by UNESCO to promote reading, publishing and copyright.
"All
forms of books make a valuable contribution to education and the dissemination
of culture and information. The diversity of books and editorial content is a
source of enrichment that we must support through appropriate public policies
and protect from uniformity. "
Irina Bokova
The reason why
I love books that much is the fact that they kind of carry you away from
reality and bring you into a world where everything is possible. You get to
know people who you would never get to know in your real life. Books bring you
to places which you cannot imagine in your wildest dreams. Just think of “Harry
Potter”! Have you ever thought about a location like Hogwarts?
To put it in a
nutshell I would say that books are like an escape for me. I am able to forget
my own problems and worries for a while and share the thrill with one of my
protagonists. When I am on an adventure with Harry Potter or another “hero” it
really feels like it would be me who fights against the bad guys.
“Every reader
finds himself. The writer’s work is merely a kind of optical instrument that
makes it possible for the reader to discern what, without this book, he would
perhaps never have seen in himself.”
Marcel Proust
