March is National Reading Month! The tradition starts with Read Across America Day on March 2. This day commemorates the birthday of Dr. Seuss, author of many childhood classics such as The Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham. Celebrate this month by picking up a book and reading to your favorite child today! Reading is an integral part of character building from the time we are born and throughout our lives. It helps us learn, escape, and grow as humans. In honor of Read Across America Day, celebrate by reading for 30 minutes today and spending some quality time with your kids!
