 

Celebrate Books in 2017!

In honor of the New Year, I did some research to find commemeorative days to celebrate reading. It turns out there’s quite a few. Oh, and did you know you can make any day a holiday. All you have to do is collect, 30,000 names on a petition. I’m declaring today “National Clean-Your-Room Day”. (Sign here).
