Monday marks the start of National Reading Month – with celebrations across the nation planned for "Read Across America Day" on Tuesday.
The day will look a little different this year, with many U.S. students learning virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But the National Education Association has planned a variety of virtual events – not just in March, but all year – to mark the occasion.
That's not the only difference: The NEA has pivoted from popular children's author Dr. Seuss to a focus on diverse children's books, a decision that has generated controversy on social media.
