Read Every Day. Lead a Better Life.

Thursday, February 23, 2012



I love Scholastic's global literacy campaign, Read Every Day. Lead a Better Life. I read and celebrate children's literature every day. Children's books enrich my life and make me a better, more thoughtful person. I feel tense and scattered when my schedule does not allow for an uninterrupted chunk of time to read and explore books. I highly recommend staying away from me if I ever go two consecutive days without reading. You see, books rejuvenate me. I bet you can relate.


Scholastic recruited celebrities to discuss the importance of reading every day.

Sarah Jessica Parker
