Dear Parents,

Summertime is an ideal time for children to do some reading. Please find attached a list of book recommendations for the different age groups.

Encouraging a reading habit in the early years is a life-long gift.  Fostering this habit is one of the most effective ways for parents to support their child’s academic progress.

Books can be a great source of information for children with special interests. This year I have chosen the ‘green’ agenda and listed some books relating to environmental issues. Hopefully these book selections will inspire our young people ‘to get into reading’, appreciate nature and decide that the world looks best when green.

Happy reading and enjoy the summer,

Regards,

Breda Dunleavy
