Read Aloud Month

February 1, 2023 is Read Aloud Day and we've decided to celebrate the entire month of February! Reading aloud – and listening -- is one of the most important things we can do. Reading aloud builds many important literacy skills, improves vocabulary, and helps us recognize what reading for pleasure is all about! MORE INFO

SUPPORT READ ALOUDS! Your donation will support our read aloud efforts - programs and collections.
