Children’s Day, Book Day: Many Thanks

Pat Mora

Thanks so much to each of you who helped promote:

Children’s Day, Book Day (CDBD)
El día de los niños, El día de los libros (Día)
this April.

CDBD/Día is a daily initiative to grow a nation of book lovers.
Teens can help promote the initiative as they too remain readers.

A nation of readers is essential in a democracy.
