Summer Reading kids will love

Written on: July 9th, 2009 by: in Reviews

summer-reading-kids1New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff contributed to the kids summer reading debate last week with his column on the Best Kids’ Books Ever!
I was immediately tempted by his recommendation of On to Oregon!- a thrilling tale of a pioneer family whose parents die early en route and who must finish the grueling journey alone- although Mr. Kristoff must not have run his choices past a librarian, because if he had, he would have discovered that On to Oregon is now entitled Seven Alone (it’s also available as a movie, but in the spirit of summer reading, keep that a secret from the young ones). Kristoff’s other choices are all good stuff, from the wonderful Anne of Green Gables to Alex Rider and Harry Potter.
You can offer your suggestions (or those of your kids) at his blog
