MAY
Get
Caught Reading is a nationwide campaign to remind people of all ages how much
fun it is to read, and May is Get Caught Reading month. The campaign is
supported by the Association of American Publishers (AAP) and the Magazine
Publishers of America (MPA). Launched in 1999, "Get Caught Reading"
is the brainchild of former Congresswoman Pat Schroeder, President and Chief
Executive Officer of AAP, the industry association representing book
publishers. She saw the opportunity to spread the word about the joys of
reading through an industry-supported literacy campaign. The MPA partnered
with AAP in 2001 to promote the message that reading is one of life's true
joys.
