Summer Reading: What are we reading?

We love summer reading at our local library.  My kids have an excel sheet they make each year to start timing their reading beginning June 1st.  They clear their schedule for this.  I find it kind kind of sweet.  Especially since their mother use to be the master of counting minutes for school prizes back in the day.
