"What’s your favorite Dr. Seuss book? I love The Cat in the Hat with its moss-covered three-handled family gredunza. I love to recite the “Tweetle Beetle Bottle Puddle Paddle Battle Muddle” in Fox in Socks just as fast as I can. The Lorax, The Sneeches, Green Eggs and Ham…I could go on and on.Reading children’s books is a fun part of having kids, and today is Read Across America Day. Read Across America, sponsored by the National Education Association, is an annual reading motivation and awareness program that calls for every child in every community to celebrate reading on March 2, the birthday of beloved children's author Dr. Seuss.
The research is clear: children who are read to, and who read for pleasure, are more successful in school than children who do not. Reading is a wonderful way to spend fun time with any child, and reading gives a child the gift of lifetime learning. So get in touch with your favorite children's books of the past and discover some new treasures with a child. Read to a kid today."
