Read for the Record 2017 by the Numbers

Drum roll please… the results for #ReadfortheRecord 2017 are in! While we did not break our own world record for readers, we are still so proud of the impact this important campaign made. Thank you to all of the schools, parents, and volunteers who participated! Click here to see photos and updates from all of the amazing events you all held across the country.

This year had over 1.5 million readers this year from all 50 states and 60 countries, and a few more impressive numbers to share as well…

Thank you to everyone who read with us, and we can’t wait until next year!!
