Summer books

School's coming to a close, but don't stop reading

By Kristen SchottPublished: May, 2010

Have you checked out this month's book reviews? I'm currently featuring the eight best selections for summer reading – and with the long holiday upon us, you should definitely check these books out. They'll keep your kiddies entertained, laughing and reading – and that's all you can ask for during the lazy summer months.

There's a book about a hermit crab that becomes a hero without even realizing it. There's a story about a very busy street and two little old ladies who want to slow things down. And there's a story from the heart of Orange County that follows four young boys who love to play golf, golf, golf – and they'll stop at nothing to keep hitting the links.

Click here to check them out. I hope you enjoy these selections – and let me know what you think!
