DERBY - Mayor Anthony Staffieri and Superintendent of Schools Matthew Conway read to students at Bradley School Friday as part of National Read Across America Day.
The annual event is held in schools and libraries across the United States to celebrate the birthday of prolific author Dr. Seuss, also known as Theodor Geisel.
He would have turned 109 on Saturday.
Staffieri and Conway were joined by Seuss' infamous character, the Cat in the Hat, a.k.a. Sam Pollastro of Derby.
