Celebrate Everyday With Books - May 18th 2020 - International Museum Day

Celebrate Every Day With Books 

It seems like everyday has some new theme to celebrate so I thought it might be fun to see what kind of interesting books I can find (new, old, or coming soon) for an everyday holiday. In fact, most days have more than one holiday!

TODAY 

IS 

MAY 18TH 2020

INTERNATIONAL MUSEUM DAY

“International Museum Day is being observed today! It has been observed annually on May 18th since 1977.” (from checkiday.com)

Just so you know I have not read most of these but the ones I pick seem the most interesting and would like to read. You can probably find tons more books for each holiday but I am only going to pick two books for one holiday a nday. 

Let me know what you think. Do any of them seem interesting to you? Is there another book you think would be a better choice?
