Read Across America, March 2, 2010

Grab a Book and Read!

This is NEA's 12th Read Across America which will be celebrate on March 2, 2010. NEA's Read Across America is an annual reading motivation and awareness program that calls for every child in every reading community to celebrate reading on or around Dr. Seuss's birthday.

In addition, this fall Green Eggs and Ham will celebrate its 50th anniversary.

The GBEA's Communication Committee used the anniversay as its inspiration for developing this year's Multimedia Contest theme. This year's theme is:

I do so like reading books!
I will read them here and there.
Say! I will read them  anywhere!

Lights, Camera, Action!
