From LitWorld.org:
Celebrate the Power of Words and Stories and Take Action for Global Literacy with LitWorld. Worldwide,
at least 793 million people remain illiterate. Imagine a world where
everyone can read...
On March 7, 2012, LitWorld, a global literacy
organization based in New York City, will be celebrating World Read
Aloud Day. World Read Aloud Day is about taking action to show the world
that the right to read and write belongs to all people. World Read
Aloud Day motivates children, teens, and adults worldwide to celebrate
the power of words, especially those words that are shared from one
person to another, and creates a community of readers advocating for
every child’s right to a safe education and access to books and
technology. By raising our voices together on this day we show the
world’s children that we support their future: that they have the right
to read, to write, and to share their words to change the world.
