Sant Jordi's Day

That day I went to village centre for a walk . In the street I found the bookshop’s stands where in that day you can find especial prices a 10% reduction (books have always a fix price). The tradition is very chauvinist: a book for men a rose for women. I had to buy a book to my husband but he doesn’t like reading. I bought a book for me like a present for him. My daughter enjoyed this day in the school with special activities like going out and a literature contest or workshops.
