Build Your Stack for the Summer Sizzle

As we all fondly recall, summer vacation is the ultimate - even during a pandemic! Staying up late into the night, basking in the golden sun, slurping up frothy ice cream concoctions, and yes - hopefully reading a good book or two or three...or three in one day. And why not?  It's summer, after all.

Here is my 2020 sizzling summer read picks for tweens and teens.  The list includes classics; diverse voices; prose and verse; and most importantly, a window, mirror, and sliding glass door book for everyone.  Time to indulge in the double scoop of ice cream and get your read on!
