DaVinci Summer 2018: Get Ready to Wander!

 

With summer just around the corner it's time to set reading goals, that stack of books to inspire the intrepid adventurer! 

The Wanderer by Sharon Creech is just such a book: "The sea, the sea, the sea. It rolled and rolled and called to me. Come in, it said, come in." Join the adventure of 13-year-old Sophie and her cousin, Cody. You are sure to not be disappointed. And be sure to carve out time to "memorialize" the treasure you discover.

Leonardo reminds us: "The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding." DaVinci Summer, our long tradition here on the blog, is an opportunity to delight in the work understanding through creativity. And DaVinci Summer is just around the corner. So join the fun and watch for details of our first ever Summer Reading Challenge with publication opportunities!

Here's to jumping on board The Wanderer.

Emily Dickinson will be smiling: 

_{There is no Frigate like a Book}

There is no Frigate like a Book

To take us Lands away

Nor any Coursers like a Page

Of prancing Poetry –

This Traverse may the poorest take

Without oppress of Toll –

How frugal is the Chariot

That bears the Human Soul –
