“Read Across America Day”
is held across the nation each year to celebrate the birthday of children’s
author, Dr. Seuss. He was born on March 2nd, 1904.
The Book Swap
In celebration of Read
Across America Day, the Media Center will be hosting a school-wide used book
swap. On Thursday, February 27th and
Friday, February 28th, students may bring in up to 3 books that they would
like to exchange. For each book brought in, students will earn one “book buck”,
for a maximum of 3. The swap will then take place during the student’s Media
Center visit the week of March 3rd,
at which time students will redeem their “book bucks.”
Books brought in for the
swap should be gently used and age-appropriate. It is preferable that books to
be exchanged are on the student’s reading level. For example, older students
are encouraged to bring in chapter books—this way there will be a wide
selection to choose from. Chapter books are in high demand! The Media Center is also accepting additional donations
of gently used books that can be used for the book swap. Donated books will
be added to the book swap, so that there is a greater selection to choose from.
Book Character Dress-Up Day
Brown students and staff
are encouraged to dress up as their favorite book character on Friday, February 28th. Character
costumes do not have to be from Dr. Seuss stories—they can be from any
children’s book!
