One thing I love about reading children’s books is that they encompass all genres.

Short Books to Read Before Summer is Over

Summer has been here for a while, and the sun is shining bright in our faces. It has been a great time to go on a hike, relax on the beach, and generally spend a lot more time outside the house.

For the purpose of this article, I’ve defined short books as ones under or around 250 pages.
