In September, the Educational Institution of Chancay, in San Marcos was celebrating its anniversary. As part of the activities for this celebration, the Rural Library that we have in this institution, had organized a Reading Marathon.
We share with you some comments from the students of this educational institution referring to this activity:
“I had a great time during the reading marathon; I read quietly and concentrated; I found it very interesting and eye-catching.”
“It was a wonderful Friday where all the students of the IE “Víctor Andrés Belaúnde” read the works of the Network of Rural Libraries of Cajamarca, which are very beautiful. I invite you to read the book El campesino y la tierra which has many ancient stories.”
“I have read the book Cosmoviviencia de la Rede, which has helped me to know a lot about my country and its customs.”
“At the end, we all made index cards of the reading that touched us, commenting on how we understood these texts.”
“From my point of view we should value this activity very much because we fill ourselves with knowledge, with amazing things. When we read, we travel to another world, very spectacular and beautiful.”
“Reading Day is a wonderful day that we should have respect for. And we should not only read on this day, but always, because it helps a lot to form us as people and as a society.”
“We all have the right to read. Books help us to be better people.”
“Books help me reflect on my problems."
