Read Across America Day

Today, many schools and libraries celebrate a wonderful national holiday know as Read Across America Day. Read Across America Day was started by the National Education Association (NEA) in 1998 to recognize the joy of reading. This special reading holiday is observed every year on March 2nd.  There are many ways schools and libraries celebrate the holiday,  including hosting book reading competitions and book fairs for students to discover new stories and authors.
