Calling all book lovers and literacy advocates! Join us in celebrating Get Caught Reading! This delightful initiative is a year-round campaign that promotes the joy of reading books. Originally launched in 1999 by the Association of American Publishers, the campaign is now managed by Every Child a Reader, an award-winning charity dedicated to encouraging literacy and a love for books among young readers.

Get Caught Reading is about diving into a good book and sharing the magic of reading with others. If you’re a teacher, librarian, or bookseller, this campaign offers vibrant, bulletin-board-sized posters featuring famous authors, artists, athletes, musicians, and beloved book characters caught in the act of reading their favorite books. These posters are not only eye-catching but also serve as a powerful reminder of the joy and importance of reading.

At iPub Global Connection, we are passionate about promoting literacy and the love of reading. We believe that books have the power to transform lives, broaden perspectives, and ignite imaginations. For our younger readers we have a wide range of picture books including books for reluctant readers. We also have numerous fiction and nonfiction titles to get lost in. This month, we encourage everyone to participate in Getting Caught Reading by sharing photos of themselves, their friends, and their family members enjoying their favorite books. (Bonus points if you share a pic of yourself reading an iPub book!) Whether you’re reading in a cozy corner at home, in a bustling café, or under a shady tree in the park, snap a picture and spread the joy of reading!

Whether you choose to visit your local library or bookstore or shop online, pick up a new book and encourage others to do the same. Let’s make reading a fun, shared experience that brings communities together. We are committed to supporting literacy initiatives and helping authors share their stories with the world. Happy reading!
