Hey Book Addicts, Chrisley here. Have you read all the books on your bookshelf and have found zilch to read at the library? Well worry not, I have a solution for you…. Here are my top 5 books for the summer! 1.) Chomp by: Carl Hiaasen Chomp is about thirteen-year-old boy Wahoo Cray who lives in South Florida with his mom (Susan) and dad (Mickey). In part having to do with a recent concussion, Mickey is reckless and scattered, getting into trouble often. Susan, busy with her work, expects Wahoo to protect his father and keep him out of trouble which is a lot of pressure for a 13-year-old. To pay off the Cray’s mortgage, Wahoo and Mickey accept a job where they wrangle animals for a reality tv show titled “Expedition Survival”. Because of this, they are surrounded by tons of exotic animals. Who knows what will happen next? 2.) Harry Potter (series) by J.K. Rowling Harry Potter is for all the book addicts out there and even if you're not one you’ll love it. It has magic, wild animals, and villany. The series follow Harry Potter, a wizard boy, as he takes on heroic adventures at his wizarding school, Hogwarts, with his two best friends Ron and Hermione. Among other things, one feature that makes Harry different is the lightning shaped scar on his forehead. When Harry was a baby, the Dark Lord Voldemort tried to murder him with his mighty wizarding power. But all that Voldemort managed to do was leave him with a lightning bolt scar. Harry’s parents were not so lucky, Voldemort killing them easily with one “avardacadarva” and a swing from his wand. Shortly after Voldemort failed to kill a mere baby, he disappeared, and Harry was sent to live with his cruel aunt, uncle, and young cousin who are revolted by the idea of magic and try to live without any mention of it whatsoever. 3.) A Wrinkle In Time (series) by Madeleine L’Engle A Wrinkle In Time is about a high school girl named Meg Murphy, little brother Charles Wallace and friend Calvin O’Keefe. The group are transported on an adventure through time. They are on a quest to save Meg’s father, a gifted scientist, from evil forces on another planet. 4.) To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee To Kill A Mockingbird takes place in a small town called Maycomb County during the Civil Rights Movement.The story is told from the point of view girl named Scout Finch. Her father Atticus Finch, is a lawyer with high morale standards. Scout, her brother Jem, and next door neighbor Dill are intrigued by the local rumors about a man named Boo Radley, who lives in their neighborhood but never leaves his house.

Alice In Wonderland by Lewis Carroll Alice is sitting with her sister outdoors when she spies a White Rabbit with a pocket watch. Fascinated by the sight, she follows the rabbit down a rabbit hole. She falls for a long time, and finds herself in a large hallway full of doors. The book follows all of Alice’s many adventures in the wacky world of Wonderland, where she meets many talking animals and creatures she didn’t even know existed. Thank you for reading!
