Every summer I create a summer reading list for myself that looks similar to a list you might send home with your students. I love reading over the summer months when I have a little more idle time and can find moments here and there to escape into someone else's world. My books of choice? Middle grade books. I find them silly, funny, heart warming, fast paced and so much fun!
The truth? I never read adult books. I tried an Oprah Book Club selection once. Just once. Oprah enjoys books about personal journeys and triumphs. I don't enjoy those kind of books, too deep for me! I don't even like mushy greeting cards! My 14 year old picked up a book I was reading the other day and asked me, "How old are you?" It made me chuckle, but I am okay with being seen reading middle grade books on planes, in airports or doctors offices. I am a teacher. And apparently a nine year old at heart.
