Reading is one of the greatest tools to prevent the well documented academic "summer slide"! There are so many great options for our students. I thought I would suggest a few titles for them to consider this summer. This list is by no means complete. It would be impossible for me to mention all the great books in publication. Also, I have chosen books with a variety of publication dates. Some are old favorites and some are new finds! You will find a heavy emphasis on books from series and trilogies. I am a huge fan of series books because they help students answer the question, "What should I read next!?!"
To our Oak Hills families - have a fantastic summer and read, read, read!!!
Check back occasionally, because even as I am publishing this list, I am finding more "must read" books that should definitely be on the list!! I will be adding over the summer!!
