Read Across America


Read Across America 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.

Now in its fifteenth year, Read Across America focuses on motivating children and teens to read through events, partnerships, and reading resources. Reading is one of the most important foundations in your child’s academic foundations. Encourage a love of reading by reading to your child every day. It is important to be animated, enthusiastic, and entertaining when you read! Join Kangaroo Kids in promoting a yearlong love of reading by coming in to read at the school. Don’t forget to visit your local library with your family!
