Pustakophaar week is celebrated to encourage students to participate in the gifting of old textbooks to their juniors.
Books help children make sense of the world around them, impart morals and values to them, often without sounding preachy, teach them empathy, and the difference between right and wrong. Moreover, children who can't read are unable to learn and this impacts their schooling. Giving a child a book can be one of the best ways to help them live their life story to the fullest.
