Canada is home to phenomenal writers of world class stories, and February 19th is the day to celebrate them.

The first annual I Read Canadian Day will take place on February 19th. This is a great time to show our pride in our home grown talent.

Consider celebrating by:

• displaying Canadian books around your school
• hosting a Drop Everything and Read time dedicated to Canadian authors
• have students bring their favorite Canadian stuffed animal to school and read a Canadian story to it
• read a wacky Canadian poem to your school
• host an author’s visit

The ideas are endless!
