There’s a legend in Catalunya which tells the story about a kingdom a long time ago. In that kingdom, there was a terrible dragon that ate people, so the king decided to sacrifice one person each day, so it wouldn’t cause more damage. But one day arrived the princess’ turn, and while she was walking to the dragon’s cave, she met a knight called Sant Jordi. He said that he was going to protect her kingdom by killing the dragon. He fought with him, and crossed with a spear the dragon’s heart, and from its blood appeared one rose. Sant Jordi took the rose and gave it to the princess.
So in 23rd of April we celebrate Sant Jordi, which is also Book’s Day: boys give roses to girls, and girls give books to boys.
I think it's good if you know about it, because you'll be here that day :D
