It’s here! The new 2009-2010 Sunshine reader’s list was announced this morning. To all Saint Stephen’s Children entering grade 4-5-6, you will be eligible to participate in our reading program. I would encourage you to be reading these books over the summer months. During the school year, Intermediate School children are invited to read at least 5 books from the recommended list, then take and pass the accompanying Accelerated reader test. Children who read at least 5 books are then invited to our voting party in April 2010. Why not read some of these books over the summer months? Enjoy!

Good luck with the nomination. I have ordered 2 copies of each book this year, including your book “The Puzzling World of Winston Breen”, Mr. Breen. We are looking forward to reading it as part of our Sunshine State reading Program.
