World Book Day 2020

It's a time for yet another World Book Day!

Every year, the first Thursday of March we're celebrating World Book Day. It's a charity funded by publishers and booksellers in UK & Ireland. Their mission is to give every child and teen to book of their own. It's also a celebration of authors, illustrators, books and reading. Unesco has designated that World Book Day is a worldwide celebration. 

In UK & Ireland they actually give these tokens to kids that kids can use to buy new books. Some might put on a costume in World Book Day. It's all about to get the kids closer to books they already love, but also to get the kids to find new books to read. 

I think that this is an awesome idea. You can never read too much. This isn't really a thing in my home country, but it should be. I would love to participate on an event like this. This is an event that I wouldn't mind to donate some money. Kids doesn't read enough these days. They play video games. I think that there are actually studies out there that shows kids learning to speak later because parents doesn't read to their kids. I think that it's really sad, because books can give you so much. 

So, what are you reading today? How are you encouraging kids to read? What book will you introduce to your kid or any kid if you don't have your own? 

It's so easy. Most of us have a library in our home town. Most of us can afford to buy a book from a store or second hand market. Most of us have some books in our homes. If all these are impossible to excel then please tell stories to your kids. Kids have an amazing imagination and it's our job to make it even better. 

Happy World Book Day! Enjoy your books!
