Monday, April 12, is Drop Everything & Read Day, and Kidzu Children's Museum will be doing just that with storytimes every hour on its Facebook page.
It's held on author Beverly Cleary's birthday each year, and the event's spokesperson is, of course, her popular character, Ramona Quimby. Cleary died in in March at the age of 104.
On Monday, Kidzu will be offering virtual storytimes every hour from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. That's a total of eight different stories read throughout the day.
You can watch them live on Facebook or watch the recordings on your own time later.
