Thanks for the mention of NEA’s Read Across America and for your appreciation of the importance of reading to children. NEA’s Vice President Lily Eskelsen recently wrote a very inspirational blog post that really drives home the point.

I hope you get the chance to check it out: http://lilysblackboard.org/

Thanks again,
