World Book Day 2013


To celebrate World Book Day this year I have chosen a video about a moving piece of news related to books. In order to understand it better, spend a couple of minutes thinking about an answer for these questions: 
  • If you were told you could only read one book for the next twelve years, which one would you choose?
  • What do you know about Nelson Mandela ?
  • What do you know about William Shakespeare?
In this video we will see how W. Shakespeare´s work inspired South African anti-apartheid prisoners who had been incarcerated on Robben Island.

When the video us over you should be able to explain what the Robben Island Bible is.



Optional homework: Choose one of these pictures and explain its message
