Stephanie Johnson, a 1st grade teacher with Matthew C. Perry Elementary, reads to her students as part of an official attempt to break a Guinness World Record aimed to raise awareness about literacy at Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan, Oct. 19, 2015. By working across time zones and continents, Points of Light, the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation, Deloitte and hundreds of other organizations hope to read to the most children ever in a 24 hour period. Read Across the Globe is an event during this literacy-awareness week that brings the power of volunteers together to impact literacy in local communities. This is the first time M.C. Perry Elementary participated in Read Across the Globe and Landrum said even if the record is not broken, the students and facility enjoyed a great day of reading.
