Events On Tap To Promote Reading, Literacy For Kids

Reading will go global today when adults and children around the world share a common reading experience. Jumpstart's Read for the Record program, designed to spotlight the importance of early literacy among young people, asks adults in dozens of countries to read the same book to groups of children on the same day. The reading selection is the classic picture book, "The Very Hungry Caterpillar," about a homely caterpillar that turns into a beautiful butterfly. Most of the readings will take place in schools, libraries, day care centers, hospitals and private homes.
