It’s hard to believe, but summer is on the horizon!  One of the things that we do everyday in the summer is spend a little time reading.  My boys (ages six and eight) are old enough to read independently so we are always on the lookout for some good books that keep their interest.  Today, I am excited to share several of our favorite book series recommendations for boys!
