Today is Read Aloud Day

My friend Chris over at Book Dads let me know about a great event called World Read Aloud Day. This is sponsored by Lit World. LitWorld’s mission is to cultivate literacy leaders worldwide through transformational literacy experiences that build connection, understanding, resilience and strength. We work with teachers, parents, community members, and children to support the development of literacy and the redemptive power of story in the world’s most vulnerable communities.

Book Dads is partnering with Lit World to promote a future Lit World girls club. You can find out more about World Read Aloud Day at http://www.litworld.org/worldreadaloudday. You can also follow litworld on Twitter at (@litworldsays).

Chris wrote a post about World Read Aloud Day over at Book Dads titled: What would miss most if you could not read or write?
