Summer Reading List

Rising 6th graders are required to read two of the following books over the summer.

  1. A Wrinkle in Time by Madelene L'Engle
  2. Hoot by Carl Hiaasen
  3. Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell
  4. Joey Pigza Swallowed the Key by Jack Gantos
  5. Skellig by David Almond
  6. Sounder by William Armstrong
  7. Tangerine by Edward Bloor
  8. Wanderer by Sharon Creech
  9. The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin

Over-achiever that I am, I've requested all of them from the library now so we can preview which ones to have for summer reading. We already have Island of the Blue Dolphins and maybe Sounder.

What, you don't own Wrinkle in Time? Everyone should own that book, because it's one of my favorites! (and Madeleine L'Engle is my favorite author). :^)

Good luck being a middle school parent.
