Be my Valentime

💓It is thought that the custom of choosing a ‘valentine’ on the 14^th of February probably came from the belief, in the 14^th Century, that birds choose their mate on that date.

Chaucer’s poem ‘ Parliament of Fowls’ in which he describes a group of birds that gather together in early spring, on Valentine’s day, sparked a tradition that St Valentine’s day represents a day of finding a mate. 💓

Why not find a good book to fall in love with

 on Valentines day??

And the Oscar goes to ..... the BOOK!

🎬It is Bafta and Oscar time again, 

but remember so many of those winning films 

were books first 🎭

We have many books which were made into films in the War Memorial Library including some on the current nominations list.
