Summer is a wonderful time to relax, explore new interests, and continue growing as readers. Reading throughout the summer helps keep our minds active, strengthens literacy skills, and allows us to discover new ideas, characters, and worlds.  We look forward to celebrating your summer reading when you return to school in September. Happy Reading, and have a wonderful summer!  To view the presentation and grade level book list, click the link above.
