2024 SUMMER READING LISTS
|
We believe readers need choice in their reading lives; therefore, all the boys are being given choice in their summer reading selections. This list is meant to support further reading, and a wide range of reading levels are presented at each grade level. Feel free to look at other grade level lists. Books have been selected for their interest, connection to the curriculum, or reviews. Some are newly released, or will be published later in the summer.
Enjoy! |
Summer Reading FAQs:
Q: There's this other book that I really want to read, but it's not on the list. Do I need to read a book from the list?
A: We want you to be excited about what you are reading, so if there is something that excites you more than what we've found, please share it with us so we can improve our lists to better reflect your reading style.

Q: I've already read a lot of the books on my grade level list. Can I read books from another list?
A: Sure. Just try reading books from the grade below and the grade above. There's a lot of variety on each list.
Q: Can I read a book that's not on the list but is by an author with another book on the list or from a series mentioned on the list?

A: Absolutely. But remember to check out the rest of the list so you can find a NEW series! Branch out and discover new genres.
