Since we do "traditional" school schedules, I try to get in some good reading during the summer but have struggled with it this year more than most. It seems there have been more demands on my time or maybe I'm just worse at time management? Anyway, here are a few I've read and hope to finish more before we start back mid-August.
Finished:
Robin Hood - Pyle - just for fun since I enjoyed it so much when I was younger ;) ! No Robin Hood story is nearly the level of Pyle's regarding dry humor, superior descriptions and excellent literary value.
Grace Abounding - Bunyon - third or fourth time around and still has so much to speak to me!
Narnia - With the children we've continued the Narnia series and are now almost finished with book number 5 "Voyage of the Dawn Treader" and hope to finish the series before school starts or shortly thereafter.
Something More - Catherine Marshall - an oldy but goody that I read as a teen but really only now understand most of it
Family Driven Faith and What He Must Be by Voddie Baucham - absolute must-reads for any parent!
The Shack - Young - a great read to get you to remember not to put GOD in our "boxes" and to remember that His unbelievable love for each of us is so much greater than any tragedy in life
What are your summer favorites?
