四月二十三日(shigatsu nijyusan nichi): April 23

April 23 is Sant Jordi's Day, which is observed in Spain and Japan. It was established in 1986 in Japan. Though it has been nearly a quarter of a century, it is not well known yet.
April 23 is also World Book and Copyright Day, which was established by UNESCO in 1995 and has been observed since 1996. It seems there are so many famous writers born and dead on April 23 historically.
April 23 is also day of reading for children.
Today I went to the live of my ex-boss of Panasonic. He mentioned a book titled "Ami, el nino de las estrellas (Ami / the child of the Stars)" by Enrique Barrios. Have you ever read this book? I felt like reading it.
