International Children’s Book Day – April 2nd

The International Board on Books for Young People initiated Children’s International Book day in 1967 and chose the date of the birthday of Hans Christian Andersen – one of the world’s best loved classic children’s authors. Each year an international section is chosen to sponsor the event and for 2009 it is Egypt.
