LPB & THE LOUISIANA ASSOCIATION OF EDUCATORS WILL READ ACROSS LOUISIANA – AND AMERICA! On Saturday, February 26th from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., LPB and LAE present "Read Across Louisiana" at the Mall of Louisiana in Baton Rouge.

March 2nd is Dr. Seuss's birthday, and we have chosen "The Cat in the Hat" in honor of the new PBS kids' series The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That! We have a special Facebook page at www.lpb.org/readacrossla. Please fill out your pledge to ready today!  We hope you will upload pictures to this page. Remember – "You're never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read with a child
