World Book Day 2022

A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a company by the way, a counselor, a multitude of counselors.

                                                                                    -Charles Baudelaire

The World Book Day is celebrated every year on April 23. This day coincides with the death anniversary of well-known English playwright William Shakespeare. The day is proudly celebrated by UNESCO to promote reading and the love of books, publishing and copyright awareness. 

This day also marks the death and birth anniversary of many other prominent people, including Maurice Druon, Haldor K.Laxness, Vladimir Nabokov, Josep Pla, and Manuel Mejía Vallejo. 

The main idea behind the World Book Day is to spread the happiness and pleasure of reading. This year, the theme of the event is “Read, so you never feel low”. With this, the plan is to widen the reading bandwagon and recognise the scope of books.

To celebrate ‘World Book Day’, Students of Class VI of our Krishnagar Public School made interesting bookmarks according to the topic of their favourite storybooks. Students of Class VII and VIII painted the symbol of World Book Day 2022, Students of IX and X drew the pictures of their favourite comic book characters and students of Class XII said few lines about their favourite book or favourite author.

The main objective was to make the students participate physically in the activities and to realize the importance of  World Book Day.

 Overall, the activities of the students of Krishnagar Public School had made the event more graceful.
