World Book Day usually falls on April 23 every year. It was set up by UNESCO in 1955 to encourage people,especially teenagers,to find the pleasure of reading. It also helps raise money for Book Aid International for the libraries in Africa. Many schools hold non-uniform days asking pupils to dress up as their favorite book characters and give away £ 1.
