We've done it for the last three years, and I have to say: this is our best one yet! This year, the full guide with 30 books(!) is available for free for Patreon members, and I'm sharing what I call my 7 flagship books in today's blog post. Flagship in the sense that these books represent our six categories and the spirit of this year's guide. I focused on choosing stories that grab readers from the first or second (at most!) chapter, short books, and a healthy mix of lighthearted stories with a dash of touching stories that aren't sopping sad.

For the inaugural edition of the Summer Reading Guide, I thought long and hard about what kids need in a summer read, and a few words came to mind. These adjectives shaped my choices for this year's selections: adventurous, engaging, heartwarming, feel-good, inspiring. I hope that every book on this list makes you feel at least one of these adjectives -- and more importantly, that they keep your kiddos flipping the pages.
