history of the holiday
Among all the "literary" events in our country, Children's Book Week was based in a difficult time. The holiday was invented in 1973, during the Great Patriotic War. Only one day was celebrated at that time - March 26 was chosen for these purposes.
The Soviet children's writer Lev Abramovich Kassil became the author of the idea of introducing the “Book Name Day” in order to try to return the children a little joy and carelessness in difficult times of the war. On this day, he initiated meetings of young readers with famous writers and poets. Cassille did not realize that his idea would spread on such a scale. The popular name "Knizhkin holiday" was formed due to the fact that many authors wanted to distract the kids from the horrors of war and give them a holiday with the help of literary works.
The first holiday took place on March 26 in the House of Unions of Moscow - a huge and solemn hall that can receive all admirers of literature. Among the famous authors of the time who met the guys were Samuel Marshak and Agnia Barto. Writers read aloud works, talked with children and answered their questions. Each child at the end of the holiday became the owner of the book. Let it be thin and printed on plain gray paper, the children were delighted.
"Nameday books" were a great success, because the government supported the initiative of Lev Abramovich and established this holiday in the Soviet Union. Two years later, they decided to extend the celebration, and he began to celebrate all spring breaks. Having survived the war and the difficult post-war period, the thematic literary week remains relevant to this day.
