Young Readers Day

Young Readers Day

Young Readers Day is celebrated on every 2nd Tuesday of November. It was co-founded by Pizza Hut and the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress. While it is primarily celebrated in the United States of America, it certainly should be promoted in other countries as well.

For children there is no better gift than the gift of books. Books can take you all around the world in 80 pages, back in time, into the future and many more places. Books can be the best friends and a never ending source of inspiration. Someone who has the taste for books needs nothing else in life.  

In today's world of Television and Video Games the Attention Span of children has reduced alarmingly. And many probably wouldn't be able to read a book for long without getting distracted. This is a sad state of affairs and children all over the world must be given an opportunity to enter the world of books.

While its true that a picture tells worth a thousand words , only words can flare a thousand imaginations .
