As writers, we know the importance reading has made in our lives. That is why holidays that support reading for kids are a big deal with me–well, that and the fact I’m also a teacher! In the United States, we celebrate Read Across America Day annually on March 2. This coincides with the birthday of Dr. Seuss, one of the most beloved and iconic children’s writers and perfect for any read-aloud.

Here are great reading websites for youngers:

    This extensive book list only reinforces my belief that all teachers should be as dedicated to their profession as you.

    Great list of websites, Jacqui! I love Dr Seuss and even put his quotes on my bulletin board outside the door of my office at the college. Thank you, Bette!

    Great post for Read Across American Day. My parents role-modeled reading for me and I did the same for my kids. Now they are doing it for theirs.

    It gives one hope and light that there are so many positive resources for younger readers … and many older ones too, I imagine, are tempted by this incredible list. Thank you for sharing, Bette and wishing you well. xx❤️
