For the fourth year, the collectors of photo moments from the life of the capital - the website Sketches of Sofia, prepared a surprise for the residents and guests of Sofia by decorating statues in the city with books wrapped as gitfs. 

This year, they have selected 30 books by Charles Dickens, J. RR Tolkien, Angel Karaliychev, Dimitar Talev and others. 

"We believe that the book gives meaning and has the power to create the future. And there is no better gift than the future," notes the team of Sketches of Sofia.
