World Book and Copyright Day is used as an opportunity to highlight the power of books to promote a vision of knowledge that is inclusive, pluralistic, equitable, open and participatory for all citizens.
Local schools have recommended novels according to students’ grades, including Chinese classics and modern fiction.
Reading regularly is an excellent habit to develop, not just to boost academic achievement but also to broaden one’s horizons, claimed a school teacher.
