Not a textbook. Not some dry academic thesis you have to crib for an exam. I mean a rollicking great thriller, or a classic Victorian spinechiller, or an autobiography of that sporting hero you\u2019ve always admired. When was the last time you tucked yourself up in bed with Stephen King, Jane Austen or Terry Pratchett?<\/p>\n<p>World Book Day promotes the idea of reading for pleasure. There is a wealth of evidence that shows that reading for pleasure \u2013 just the pure, unalloyed enjoyment of it &#8211; is important for personal development and helps in educational success. It stimulates the imagination, brings comfort, expands your horizons, helps to build social connections and promotes better health and well-being. All that from a book!<\/p>\n<p>World Book Day is specifically aimed at children. But we want to remind you that reading for pleasure is like riding a bike \u2013 once learned, you never forget how to do it. So, if it\u2019s been a while since you picked up a book just for the sake of it, why not do so today and re-discover that childlike state of wonder that only books create. As far as I\u2019m concerned, the best thing about reading for pleasure is that I get lost in my own personal world and nobody else gets a look in.<\/p>\n<p>World Book Day is celebrated on the first Thursday of March. But feel free to pick up a book on any day of the week, any month of the year. And if you happen to be in any of our libraries when you do so, why not pull up a chair, sit back and settle into your story.<\/p>\n<p>Check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/my.napier.ac.uk\/library\/about-the-library\/relaxation-spaces\">relaxation space<\/a> to settle into your story and find out more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldbookday.com\/about-us\/world-book-day-scotland\/\">World Book Day in Scotland<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>By Lesley McRobb<\/p>\n<p>A lover of books, read all our previous <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.napier.ac.uk\/library\/?s=books\">posts.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World Book Day 2024 World Book Day 2024 &#8211; 7th March When was the last time you got lost in a good book?
