Every year on March 2nd, educators, librarians, parents, grandparents, and others organize events and activities to bring reading excitement to children of all ages. The Read Across America program was created to motivate children to become lifelong readers.
We want to encourage our bucketfilling friends to read every day and share their love of reading by encouraging others! That's why we've created a reading challenge for the month of March.
From March 1st through March 31st, pick your favorite Bucket Fillers' book. Take a quick reading picture - either you reading it to your children, you reading it to your class, your class reading together, your grandkids reading to each other, etc. Share the picture on your favorite social media site, tag us using
@BucketFillers1
, and use the hashtag
#ReadAcrossAmerica
. (Note: Our social media platform links are at the bottom of this email.)
At the end of the month, we'll randomly select 50 people to receive an
autographed
copy of one of our books. Plus, we'll donate another copy to your local library to help spread the joy of reading to others in your community.
Let's work together to fill the buckets of those around us and get children excited to Read Across America!
