October 16 is a book reading holiday in France

October 16 - Reading Day in France Le Temps des livres (French - book time) is a very rare and interesting holiday. No other country has celebrated such a holiday at such a high level, that is, with such attention to literature and books as France. The first reading day in 1989 was initiated by the French Ministry of Culture and welcomed by the French community. This holiday is included in the annual diary as a holiday, and is still celebrated in the second half of the month as a holiday. The three-day holiday program will include meetings with various poets and writers, scientific-practical conferences, book exhibitions, presentation of new books. On the day of the holiday, everyone presents books to each other, enriches libraries with books, famous writers hold various creative meetings, introduce guests to new creations. The reading of the book will be widely covered in all media. For three days, the whole country will be aware of the lively conversations and events about Literary Day. All other pressing issues are pushed aside these days. Therefore, the holiday of reading is to get rid of all the small problems, to enjoy the works of world literature and to get acquainted with the work of modern youth. Reading meaningful works expands people's spiritual and enlightenment worldviews, develops vocabulary, and plays an important role in awakening people's thinking. The importance of the Feast of Reading is that reading a book glorifies the human mind.
