Books bt Fernando Pablo Quevedo


"Annie" has travelled around the five continents, "Annie" has crossed oceans and "Annie" has visited a lot of countries and monuments. It may sound amazing, if we thought about a girl, but it sounds incredible if we think that "Annie" is the tittle of a novel written by Stephan Owen. This story is true and it's possible thanks to the "Book-crossing" programme.

Book-lovers can't accept the fact that books are thrown away to the rubbish or simply forgotten in a library, so they have done something to avoid this situation. They have created a programme in which people can exchange books for free. The book owners just have to "release" the book in a club that has sign. The treat consists of, when somebody has already read the book, the reader has to leave it again but in another club.

I really think that it is a very good way to spread culture. It's free, and you can get books that you can't get in ordinary bookshops
