Most people remember reading one or two Dr. Seuss books in school as they grew up and many credit Dr. Seuss with sparking their love of reading. International Literacy Day is September 8, 2012 and a perfect day to share how reading opened your eyes to world full of meaning and expression.
Think about your favorite book. Now think about how everything about you might have changed because you never were able to read it--the stop sign on the corner; the instructions on a food carton. Today, almost 800 million adults are illiterate - that is unacceptable.
