Scholastic was a BIG deal when I was in school. We homeschool our kids so I’m not even sure….do they still have Scholastic book fairs? Those were the best! I’d scrounge up some money to buy a book and small trinket and would be on cloud 9 for days.

To this day, we are a family that LOVES reading! In fact, when we have to find a ‘punishment’ for the kids, it typically comes down to taking away books for the day. (Not a bad problem to have, I know.) I credit their love for reading to a variety of things but two major steps in particular. When the kids were little, we read to them, a lot! Pretty much every night actually. My husband and I would sit down and we’d read 5-10 short kids books to them every night at bedtime. Another important thing we did was limit screen time, which we still do to this day.

So I couldn’t let July hit without sharing some awesome Scholastic books with you that make for great summer reads — all available on Amazon too!

Winter Turning: A Graphic Novel (Wings of Fire Graphic Novel #7)

Our ‘middle 3 kids’ have loved the Wings Of Fire series and devoured every book they’ve gotten their hands on. So when I realized they had a graphic novel version as well, I knew they’d appreciate adding it to their collection.

Daring mission… or deadly mistake? Winter has been a disappointment to his royal IceWing family his whole life. When his sister, Icicle, runs away from Jade Mountain Academy, fleeing terrible crimes and possibly planning to commit more, Winter knows that they both need a second chance to make things right — if only he can find her.
