Find my books here
Do your summers slow down? Do you go to the lake, the mountains? the seashore? Do you listen to audiobooks while tending your summer garden? Summer reading holds a special place in my heart.
Our grandson Des stays with us over the summer. What fun finding a book we can read together each night before bed. Since he loves animals, especially monkeys, I'm thinking The Summer of the Monkeys by Wilson Rawls might be a good fit this summer.

I look forward to sharing great tales we used to read with his mother, her sister and brother, too--the Little House books, Anne of Green Gables, the novels of CS Lewis and Madeline L'Engle.
Do you read a different kind of book in the summer? What plots intrigue? Wedding weekend drama? Rich people behaving badly? Maybe you're ready for an alien invasion, a richly tapestried historical novel or a generational family saga? Perhaps friends forever tale is more to your liking? Or a good story of summer love?
The days of reading to children and grandchildren are over. Youngest grandchild is now eighteen. I do remember those days with pleasure.
