| Now that the summer is almost over just wondering how much reading were your kids able to get done given the camps, travel etc.. mine did a fair amount. Not as much as I would have liked.. |

| Rising first read at least 10 books that I bought her or she got from the library but she also did a lot of reading in bed from her bookshelf. Of course these are short books (Salem Hyde, Zoey & Sasafras, Narwal & Jelly) but she has a love of reading and I’m thrilled beyond belief |

| About 10, but they were all graphic novels. I would've preferred chapter books, but I'll take what I can get. |

| 11-year-old read about 3 novels. Mostly stuff like the Hobbit. |

| My 8 yo loves to read. She averaged around 75-100 pages a day. She blew through the Harry Potter series, Percy Jackson, The Little Princess and others she picked from the library that I can't recall. |

Senior reads constantly, all good books and current events.
7th grader reads, but not what I want her to read. Tried to push literature in our native language, and it was like pulling teeth... finally I was surprised that she liked an author who writes like Edgar Allen Poe - suspense and a bit morbid. So I guess Edgar Allen Poe is next, and maybe Hound of the Baskervilles, things like that. |

LOL same. And yet he scores over 90% on MAP-R reading so not pushing it. |
