Read Across America
NEA's Read Across America
What began as a simple idea has turned into a nationwide movement. More
than ten years ago, NEA’s Read Across America asked adults and kids to
share a book together. Today, NEA's Read Across America Day is more than
a celebration of Dr. Seuss's birthday, it's a celebration of reading itself,
across all age groups, across cultures, across America. More than 45 million
adults and children celebrate NEA's Read Across America Day each year.

Mustang Valley’s reading celebration includes students in several classes
reading together with children from other states and countries through
interactive video conferencing. Students and staff enjoy a day of sporting
Seussational clothing, having Green Eggs and Ham for lunch, and being immersed
in the fun of reading.
