Bloomsday is a special day on June 16th when people remember a famous book called "Ulysses" by an Irish writer named James Joyce. On this day, fans of the book celebrate by reading parts of it, dressing up like the characters, and visiting places in Dublin, Ireland, where the story takes place. It's named after the main character, Leopold Bloom. People have parades, eat food mentioned in the book, and sometimes act out scenes from the story. It's like a big book party that takes literature from the pages and brings it to life in the real world.
