Today is the
International Children's Book Day. It was established in 1925 on the date of Hans Christian Andersen's birthday, April 2. Andersen is one of the most famous and loved fairy-tale writers of all times.
Celebrations of this holiday across the world include meetings with authors and illustrators, writing competitions, and reading children's books to groups of children. If you have kids in your family, today is a great occasion to read them something before bed ;)
