The day was established by the National Education Association (NEA) in 1998 to encourage children to read and celebrate the joy of reading. It coincides with the birthday of beloved children's book author Dr. Seuss, making it a perfect day to read his books and other favorite stories. On this day, students, teachers, parents, and community members come together to participate in various reading activities, such as book readings, storytelling sessions, and book fairs. 

It's a wonderful way to promote literacy and the love of reading among children.
