Summertime is a great time to relax with a
book. Whether you're on the beach, in your living room, or in the backseat
of the family car, there's nothing like a great book to liven up the long
summer vacation. No matter what you're doing during June, July, and August,
there's always plenty of time for reading. You can take a book anywhere,
and likewise, a book can take you anywhere!
The most important thing about summer reading is that it should be fun! The
following reading lists provide some recommendations for books Town School
boys and their families should enjoy. These lists are organized by grade
level and include a mixture of fiction and non-fiction titles. Some of the
recommended books are quick, easy "beach reads," while others may offer more
of a challenge.
Although the Town School library is closed over the summer, most of the
books on our reading lists are available from the San Francisco Public
Library. We also send copies of these lists to local bookstores, including
Borders (downtown) and Books Inc. (Laurel Village, Chestnut Street, Opera
Plaza).
