With the myriad of summer reading programs out there, most homeschoolers are participating in one or another, whether via a local library or Book-It!

And while reading is always, always, always to be encouraged for its own sake, writing reviews afterwards is a fun way to tack on just a bit of writing as well. Short (and with the thrill of seeing their name “published”, if parents so choose) it’s just the right size for summer–and comes with the bonus of helping out another reader or homeschool family as well!
