I was one of those weird bookworm kids.

The kind who is half tomboy, but who simultaneously wished she lived in the library.

So summer was the time to stock up on books.

I would lay out in the yard, letting the sunshine on my face and the words in my hand transport me to the kinds of worlds found only in a good book.

In honor of that timeless call to read in the sunshine, Picking Dandelions is sponsoring a summer blog tour.

The participating bloggers have put Picking Dandelions on their summer reading list and will report back to you about the book on their blogs.

Annnnnnnnnd…

If that was not snazzy and summery enough for you, they will each also recommend three of the best books they have EVER EVER read. I’ll be stockpiling their recommendations, along with a few of mine, on a soon to be released summer reading list. That growing book list will be posted throughout the summer as we collect new titles (and then condensed into one final list at the beginning of September) so stay tuned.
