June 1 is Children's Day, a day to honor children globally. One of the ways to bring our children happiness is by giving them books as gift. A good read could help encourage children to turn off the TV or ditch the computer games, and experience fantastic adventures. Below is a small selection of children's books that are perfect for reading on this occasion.
The author of The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, once said, "I want to dedicate this book to the child whom this grown-up once was. All grown-ups were children first. (But few of them remember it.)” Thus the recommended books could also be presents for those who are young at heart .
