[quote=Anonymous]My DD does not read for pleasure. Unfortunately, she has enough assigned reading she has to complete over the summer that there is no time. She's dyslexic and a slow reader, and since middle school has found that she just has no energy left for reading for pleasure. She used to listen to a ton of audio books, and adored them and I hope that once she's out of high school she'll have more space for reading for pleasure. This frustrates me, but it's also part of my daughter's choices. She chooses to take AP classes, which always have summer reading. If she were taking regular classes, she'd only need to read 2 books this summer. Due to AP courses, she has to read 5. I love your idea of letting kids pick from a curated list. (My daughter would pick the shortest one and/or the one that she could get the audiobook for.)[/quote]
