Sant George is on the 23rd of April. On that day guys hace to give a rose to the girls and girls have to give a book to guys. This is a tradition that has been celebrated a lot of years. It has its own legend.
The legend says that there was a dragon that had kidnapped the princess of a town. It was eating all the people because it was hungry. There was a knight who was called George. When de knight wanted to rescue the princess the dragon didn't want and started to fight. They were fighting hardly and finally George won and dragon's blood became a rose.
This is why Saint George is so important to give a rose, that symbolizes the dragon's blood, and a book, that refers the legend.
Saint George is next week and I don't know if I'm going to celebrate it yet.
