Give a book from the heart this Valentine's Day

Give a book from the heart this Valentine's Day
From February 13 to 19, bring two books in good condition to the souvenir shops of the Krka National Park, and take away "The Legend of the Krka". We will gift your books onwards to others.

Valentine's Day always brings with it a public discussion about commercialization, i.e. excessive spending of money on gifts for loved ones, which is encouraged in February by numerous companies. But it is actually possible to please another person with an original gift for which you don't have to visit a shopping centre. Instead, just go to one of the souvenir shops of the Krka National Park. The date of Valentine's Day, February 14, is also International Book Giving Day! For the past several years now, the Krka National Park has donated books on this date from its own publication series to libraries or reading rooms.

This year, we invite people to join our action “A Book from the Heart” and bring (a minimum of) two books in good condition to one of our souvenir shops in Šibenik, Drniš, or at Skradinski buk waterfall and in return as a reward receive a gift of the book “The Legend of the Krka” in Croatian or English. The Krka National Park will donate your books to a chosen association or institution, depending on the subject. You can bring books from February 13^th to 19^th during the opening hours of the souvenir shops, which you can find on the Park's official website. In this way, we all participate in the exchange of both knowledge and caring, which connects these two days that we celebrate on February 14.

The photographic monograph, The Legend of the Krka, with photographs by Davor Šarić, and text by Veljko Barbieri, was published in 2010, and is one of the most beautiful editions published by the Krka National Park with fairy-tale photos and poetic prose, just the right gift for Valentine's Day.
