Celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday today by joining book lovers and your local school and public library for Read Across America Day.
This year, the National Education Association, a group of more than 3.2 million educators who work to improve public schools, is calling on book lovers around the nation to take up The Lorax, the popular Dr. Seuss children's book published in 1971 about the lovable creature who fights to save the environment.
Share your plans for celebrating Read Across America Day with Dallas-Hiram Patch and on the Read Across America pledge site. You can also submit your photos of your celebrations here.
