What are you reading today to celebrate “National Read a Book Day?”

National Read a Book Day is observed annually on September 6th. National Read a Book Day invites everyone, young or old, to grab a book to enjoy and spend the day reading.

Don’t keep it to yourself. Share the experience!

  • Read aloud with children or grandparents.
  • Read to your pets (cat or dog) or to your stuffed animals and plants.
  • Children, read to your parents!

Reading improves memory and concentration. Reading reduces stress. Older adults who spend time reading show a slower cognitive decline. Books are an inexpensive entertainment, educational tool and time machine too! Everyone, yes, you, are invited to read Learning to Read: Favorite Fairy Tales and Learning to Read: New Testament Stories!
