The ac is on full blast and the sunscreen is running low. The dog days of summer are here! What a great opportunity to turn off the TV and the computer (smart phone, ect. . . .) and pick up a good book. Find some shade, a nice chair (or lay a blanket on the grass) get yourself some ice water and get transported to a different world. Once you start you'll be hard pressed to put it down. Take advantage of no homework and studying for tests. Hopefully you'll start a healthy habit of reading that will carry through to the next school year. Go to your local library or bookstore and begin your adventure, you won't be sorry.
