BOOKWORM: meaning and examples
Good morning!
Today is St. George's Day (the patron saint of England and Catalonia), otherwise know as St. Jordi's Day in Catalonia, where it is celebrated with books and roses. In honour of this day, today we include a special "book" word!
Special App Giveaway
Today we will select two of the best posts on our Facebook page (see Facebook question at the end of the lesson) to receive a promo code for a free download of an iPad children's interactive app about the legend of Saint George. If you have children, it's a fun way to help them improve their English while learning about the legend. We have included a link below with more information about the app.

Today's word is: bookworm
It means: a person who reads a lot.
Example 1:
My daughter is a real bookworm. She's always reading. She especially likes the Geronimo Stilton series.
Example 2:
It can be difficult to choose a book for a bookworm because it seems like they've already read everything! One solution is to give the bookworm in your life a gift certificate to use in their favourite bookshop.
Happy St. Jordi's Day and Happy Reading!
