While school may be ending, summer is the perfect time to get kids excited about reading! Reading is fundamental and it’s important to teach your children the importance of reading at an early age. Additionally, they can learn responsibility by acquiring their first library card! Kids at Grand View Builders communities are zoned to Lamar, Conroe, and Alvin school districts but they can still enjoy the recommended summer reading lists for children created by HISD. We’ve attached links to these lists and also selected our favorites from each! These books are so much fun, they will make summer reading a fun activity rather than a boring chore!
