The 2010 EW Summer Books Challenge will run from May 1, 2010 through September 6, 2010 (Labor Day). You don't need to pick your books, just the level you're going to do. After you read a book, just write a review to share your thoughts with others! You can sign up at Booking Mama, grab the challenge button, announce your level and start reading! I'll post links to the books I've read from the challenge right here, so you can see how I did this summer!

I'm playing it safe here... I'm officially announcing my Polliwog level! (Besides, I never really learned to swim...)
