World Book Night was first held last April in the UK and has now come to the United States. On April 23 50,000 people will be giving away one million free books to light or non-readers to promote the love of reading. Thirty titles have been chosen including The Hunger Games, Bel Canto, and Because of Winn Dixie. Today is the last day to sign up, but I encourage you all to take a moment today to do so. I think it's fair to say we all like to promote literacy in some way or another, and encouraging someone else to get lost in a book sounds like a great night to me. Please visit the World Book Night website for more information!
