International Children’s Book Day is celebrated on April 2, the birthday of H.C. Andersen.

Andersen Prize every two years to a writer – author of books for children and an illustrator of children’s books. The initiative to create the International Children’s Book Day belongs to the famous German writer Jelle Lepmann.
