Mary-Kate and Ashley Get Caught Reading!

by Erin on May 3rd, 2007

May is Get Caught Reading Month. It’s a national campaign designed to promote reading! It’s one of the several projects Mary-Kate and Ashley support. They participated in its pictorial campaign, where they — and lots of other celebrities — got ‘caught’ reading!

Read more about this great program (and how to get this great poster!) below the cut.

The Get Caught Reading website declares

Get Caught Reading is a nationwide campaign to remind people of all ages how much fun it is to read. May is Get Caught Reading month, but the campaign is promoted throughout the year. Get Caught Reading is supported by the Association of American Publishers (AAP). 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.

Because of research indicating that early language experience actually stimulates a child’s brain to grow and that reading to children gives them a huge advantage when they start school, we hope to encourage people of all ages to enjoy books and magazines and to share that pleasure with the young children in their lives.

Feel free to add websites to the list of things one can enjoy through reading. The best part? The celebrity advertisements are available to buy as posters! The proceeds go to a great cause!

Once you are done reading this (because reading is important!) head on over to the Get Caught Reading website to read about the program, how you can get involved and to purchase the Mary-Kate and Ashley poster!
