As the
UNESCO – United Nations, Educational, Scientific and Cultural organization –
webpage explains, World Book and Copyright Day is “an opportunity to recognise the
power of books to change our lives for the better and to support books and
those who produce them”.
I often refer to the close link between films
and literature and quite a lot of the posts that I´ve written revolve around
this idea. It´s true that I do so because I´m interested in books but the main
reason is that many of the films that we watch wouldn´t exist without books as
those films are inspired by a written story. Today I don´t wish to write about
any of the latest films which are based on books, I suggest that you should
watch any film which appeals to you irrespective of its inspiration or source;
however, I would recommend marking this day by reading a passage or a few lines
from any book which you may like and sharing the content of that book with
someone else: reading for other people
or telling the stories that we have read is a different way of reading which
can turn into a very rewarding experience.
HAPPY
BOOK DAY!!
Would
you like to tell us about your plans for today? What´s your favourite way of
marking this red-letter day?
