Celebrating National Family Literacy Day

"The more you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." Dr. Seuss --National Family Literacy Day was established in 1994 and is officially celebrated on November 1st and throughout the month. Schools, libraries, reading programs, and literacy organizations are geared to ignite reading in a special way with read-a-thons, book drives, and interactive activities. Even McDonald's is offering a Happy Meal Books promotion that will hopefully entice children to read more.
