Cool School: Read Across America Day March 2

On March 2, Read Across America Day puts the spotlight on reading material as classic as Dr. Seuss and as contemporary as high school poetry jams.  The nation’s largest annual reading celebration is sponsored by the National Education Association and  honors the birthday of Theodore Geisel (Dr. Seuss), born March 2, 1904. Kids, parents, educators and libraries  around the country can join in to add their own creative spin to ideas and materials shared online. One link lists the top 100 books favored by teachers, another features the top 100 as cited by kids. The Cat-A-Van Reading Tour will also be making stops around the country.
