There's nothing like relaxing on a cot in your bunk, reading during rest hour. Here are great stories to share with campers of every age! The inimitable Froggy is back in Froggy Goes to Camp. #1 New York Times bestseller Jane O'Connor's camp classic, Yours Till Niagra Falls, Abby, gets a new look this summer. And being a camp counselor has never been so funny—or so true-to-life—as in Paula Danziger's There's a Bat in Bunk Five.

Not sure what book to take to the beach this summer? Start with these! Lock and Key is Sarah Dessen at her finest. For music lovers, it doesn't get any better than Audrey, Wait! Meanwhile, for sports fans, recommend Mike Lupica's The Big Field and Summerball—now available in paperback!

It's been a long and snowy winter for Frannie and her classmates, and studying poetry can make it seem endless. "Hope is the thing with feathers ..." That's how one poem begins, but Frannie is not really sure what to make of it until a boy as white and quiet as the falling snow steps into her world. After a winter like this one, nothing will ever be the same again . . . Jacqueline Woodson once again takes readers on a journey into a young girl's heart and reveals the pain and the joy of learning to look beneath the surface.
