Friday was WORLD BOOK DAY. It is celebrated on April 23 each year to promote the love for reading and writing. Also called Copyright Day, it promotes the importance of protecting intellectual property via copyright laws. 

This year’s theme for WORLD BOOK DAY emphasized how literature inspires awareness of global issues such as poverty, inequality, hunger, and so on.

Next week is Teacher Awareness Week, recognizing the role of teachers in developing skills, such as reading, in our schools. 

As they say, “If you can read this, thank a teacher!”
