LitWorld founder Pam Allyn discusses World Read Aloud Day and the importance of reading every single day to promote literacy. World Read Aloud Day is partnering with Harry Potter Book Night this year.
Allyn explains World Read Aloud Day, or W.R.A.D., provides books to teach the less fortunate around the world. W.R.A.D. is all-inclusive and is celebrated in 100 countries.
W.R.A.D. this year coincides with the 20th anniversary of the first Harry Potter book being released. Readers are encouraged to celebrate both events.
When police responded to an alarm call at a TJ Maxx in Rockland, Maine on Thanksgiving Day last week, they weren't sure what exactly they would find. The alarm hadn't been tripped by a burglar but instead, it was a different kind of break-in -- a white-tailed deer.
