It was wonderful seeing so many of you during our March Break Camp! We can’t wait to do it all again this summer at Laurus Summer 2018! As kids return to school, we thought we’d share a few book recommendations. No, this is not homework! We want kids to read for fun! Whether it’s a novel, graphic novel or a non-fiction book, reading for pleasure is habit that leads to success in and out of the classroom.
Here are a few newly-released books recommendations to motivate your kids to read:
Pre-Ks
