When I was young I could read a whole book in a day during summer vacation! I can’t believe that summer will already here NEXT month and my kids will be at home looking for things to do. One thing I always encourage them to do when they say they are bored is to READ and I always have plenty of books on hand in case they run out of things to read.
Below are three books from Disney Books that I recommend adding to your middle grade child’s summer reading list!
Charlie & Frog: A Mystery by Karen Kane
