A Little Piece From The UK says The launch of the 2nd World Book Day Online Festival is taking place on 4th March 2004 (during the actual World Book Day). The online festival will include films, live web chats, discussion forum and online poll for all ages, from the under 5s to adults.
Events are very reader-focused, with writers talking about their reading passions as well as their writing lives, and what books mean to them. There is also the chance for readers to interact with one another, and link to other book/reading-related websites.
The Festival home page is currently showing a preview film trailer for 2004, and you can also access the 2003 Festival archive.
When?
OK, I’m confused. According to the UNESCO and Center For The Book websites, World Book Day is April 23rd. But this site says it’s March 4th. They can’t both be right…can they?
