World Read Aloud Day 2017


It's World Read Aloud Day on February 16, 2017!

This year's theme is Read Aloud. Change the World! When you visit the website, make sure that you click on the freebies. There is a downloadable PDF of the picture book, New Day, New Friends (by C. Alexander London, Ying-Hwa- Hu, illustrator) which can be used as the read aloud story during the launching of the World Read Aloud Day in your learning community. There is an activity kit in the conduct of  World Read Aloud Day 2017  celebration, and this is free as well.

Looking back, here are selected blog posts I made in celebration of World Read Aloud Day 2017.

A blog carnival on reading, books and reading aloud

Where my kids and I talked about books

In 2012, I posted a video of me reading aloud Lizard's Rock by George Shannon

Where Zoe read aloud one of the books in the I Spy series

LitWorld, the proponent of World Read Aloud Day, has cute posters every year to drum up the celebration

Visit the website and join this literacy initiative. Other than getting the freebies, campaign for books and reading. Change the world!
