Presenting the 2010 Summer Reading Superlatives

Aug27
2010
Written by Becky H.

Around First Book there is a lot of talk about books. Go figure, right?  We talk about the bilingual edition of Eric Carle’s Very Hungry Caterpillar, Ezra Jack Keat’s Snowy Day, Rosemary Well’s Bunny Money, Curious George, The Cat in the Hat and even what books got us hooked.  And while we spend a lot of time discussing children’s books, we rarely talk about, well, what we’re reading. So I set out to find out what books my fellow First Bookers were reading to wrap up the summer. And so now, I present to you (drumroll, please . . . ) the 2010 Summer Reading Superlatives:

Most Read Around the Office

Committed, a Skeptic’s Guide to Marriage, by Elizabeth Gilbert

Yummiest Reads for Foodies

In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto, by Michael Pollan

My Life in France, by Julia Child READ MORE »
