Summer book reviews

This summer, we're trying to make a weekly trip the library. The boys love it and it makes me feel like I'm doing my part in helping them be better readers. We decided to review their favorites for this week and we'll try to make this a weekly tradition as well. I typed the boys' answers as they said them.
