Some people like to read the biographies of the most influential people, some like to read novels that send chills down your spine. Regardless of the type of books you prefer, the truth is the world would not be the same without books. 

If you have children, this could be the perfect day to teach them about the joys of reading. In today’s world, we are so flooded with images and videos that we run a risk of abandoning reading entirely–why bother if we can just watch a movie? Imagination is a child’s best friend, so make sure you contribute to keeping that little imagination as active as possible. 

So take time today to curl up on the couch with your book, your child, your dog, a cup of tea and enjoy every last page....
