February 5 is World Read Aloud Day, and is a wonderful opportunity to share the joys of reading with your class. Created by LitWorld and sponsored by Scholastic, World Read Aloud Day challenges readers of all ages to pick out their favorite titles, find and audience, and read aloud!
2025 marks the 15th anniversary of World Read Aloud Day, and over the past 15 years it has evolved into a global movement, bringing together millions of readers, writers, and listeners from around the world to honor the joy and power of reading aloud — and to continue expanding the definition and scope of global literacy.
This year, Scholastic's Storyvoice will be running a marathon of live events throughout the day. Check out the great lineup of FREE live author events below that your class will love!
