Babies Wear Dr. Seuss Hats for National Reading Month

Mar 2, 2021

Doctors Medical Center is once again celebrating National Reading Month! Every baby born at DMC in March will receive the book “Oh, Baby, the Places You’ll Go!” by Dr. Seuss. We hope this will help inspire a love of reading and start a library for these newborns.

In addition – the first 20 babies born in March at Doctors Medical Center received a special Dr. Seuss hat, knitted by one of our longtime volunteers, Eleanor Ford. She has been a volunteer with us for 20 years.

National Reading Month coincides with Read Across America, a nationwide reading celebration that takes place annually on March 2, Dr. Seuss’s birthday.
