As part of our blog series Family Reads in the Open Field we’ll be rolling out reading lists for families to enjoy all summer long, as provided by local artists, artist-parents, and creative kids. Books selected from the reading lists, as well as radios, backyard games, and other fun stuff is available for check-out at the Open Field Tool Shed.
This week’s list is provided by Destiny Otto. Destiny Otto is kind and loves when people read books to her. She is almost 9 years old and goes to Breck School. Thanks Destiny for these wonderful suggestions!
