Advertiser Staff

Solomon Elementary School third-graders, 'Aiea High School students and city officials will take part in a reading event set for 9 a.m. tomorrow at Honolulu Hale.

The event is tied to the National Education Association's "Read Across America" program. Hawai'i State Teachers Association officials will be in attendance to discuss the annual reading motivation and awareness program that celebrates reading on or around Dr. Seuss' birthday.

Dr. Seuss, Theodor "Ted" Seuss Geisel, born on March 2, 1904, in Springfield, Mass., produced entertaining and instructive children's books over a span of five decades. He died in 1991 at the age of 87.
