According to www.litworld.org, LitWorld founded World Read Aloud Day in 2010 as an opportunity for people all around the globe to celebrate the joy of reading aloud, and advocate for literacy as a fundamental human right that belongs to everyone. Over the last ten years, World Read Aloud Day has evolved into a global movement of millions of readers, writers, and listeners from communities all across the world coming together to honor the joy and power of reading and sharing stories, and continue expanding the definition and scope of global literacy.
Today is the day. Grab a book, snuggle up and spend some time reading and enjoying books.

Well, I missed the day, but I read without knowing it was a special day. I read most every night when I go to bed. It gives me time to wind down from the day and relax. Thanks for the information. Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteI do as well, Beverly. Reading is a wonderful way to wind down. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
