summer reading!
Pioneer Woman Cooks by Ree Drummond HarperCollins |
This is a mouth-watering collection of stories, photos, and recipes for favorite comfort foods from pot roast to creme brulee. The photos and stories of life on a working Oklahoma ranch are almost as inviting as the recipes, which are themselves illustrated step-by-step with photos that look delicious!

How High the Moon by Sandra Kring Random House |
You won't be able to resist Teaspoon, the 10 year old hero of How High the Moon! During an eventful summer, Teaspoon is set to star in a community theater production, make new friends, participate in a mentoring program, and reunite with her mother. You'll find yourself rooting for Teaspoon and hoping she holds on to her innocence in spite of everything that happens. It's definitely not a children's book, but is a very satisfying read. |
Silencing Sam by Julie Kramer Atria Books |
For a completely different kind of story, try Julie Kramer's third novel and third Midwest Connections Pick. Silencing Sam is a thrilling, action-packed murder mystery featuring TV reporter Riley Spartz, who is secretly investigating the murder of a newspaper columnist and is herself a prime suspect in the murder. |
