Children's Books Week

RISE UP READING!
The 88th celebration of Children’s Book Week is November 12-18, 2007 and the theme Rise Up Reading is very appropriate.


As we all know, reading is not a solitary, stationary activity. People learn, grow, and benefit from reading day-to-day lives because so much of today’s information is only available through the word—in books, newspapers, magazines, the Internet, and even on television.

Children cannot "Rise Up" to this challenge without many, many hours of reading practice, impossible for anyone to read that much without first developing a love of reading. During Children’s Book Week, parents, educators, and other caregivers can "Rise Up" to this take a stand. Introduce your kids to all sorts of books and "Rise Up Reading" together.
