Websites offering summertime book recommendations can be overwhelming.
One of my favorite online resource for book recommendations is
http://www.neh.gov/projects/summertime-kto3.html
Their recommendations are refreshingly on target for age appropriate titles.
In choosing books children will enjoy, parents should pay attention not just to the reading level but also to the emotional readiness a child brings to the story.
Some of my favorite evergreen titles:
Picture books ….& NO one ever outgrows the love of a great picture book:
Amos & Boris by William Steig

Way to Start a Day by Byrd Baylor

Balto and the Great Race by Elizabeth Cody Kimmel
Jake Drake Know-It-All by Andrew Clements
Stone Fox by John Reynolds Gardiner
Books for Children in Grades 4-6+
