World Book Day ! Roses~

Today, there's an event going on in my college..
It is the 23rd of April, They named it "The World Book Days"


From what I heard, UNESCO declared 23rd of April the World Book Days.
This symbolic date for universal literature also marks the passing away of Miguel de Carvantes and William Shakespeare on the same day in 1616.


In the Spanish region of Catalonia, on 23rd of April, a rose is exchanged for each book received.
