Read Across America

Join the Library and CYS in celebrating Read Across America! This fun, family-friendly event will include a “Horton Hears a Who” puppet show, storytime, make and take activities, face paint and more!

NEA's Read Across America Day, which celebrates Dr. Seuss's birthday and the joys of reading, expects more than 45 million readers, both young and old, to pick up a book and read.

To honor the good doctor and celebrate the fun and value of reading, USAG-RP MWR Libraries are asking you to join NEA and many of America's leading literacy, youth, and civic groups in bringing a nation of readers together under one hat-the red and white stovepipe made famous by the Cat in the Hat-for a flurry (or furry) of reading excitement!

Our goal is to show America's children the joy of reading and build a nation of readers-on March 3rd and every day.
