Happy Summer from the BNS/BCS Library

Dear Students & Families,

Welcome to the BNS Summer Reading 2019 website! You'll notice the tabs at the top of this page that direct you to lists for your particular grade. Please feel free to browse all the lists and make choices that feel right for your reading level and that sound interesting to you. 

A lot of these titles appear on the Brooklyn Public Library Summer Reading lists as well, which should almost guarantee their availability. You may also find audio book editions of these titles in the Brooklyn Public Library catalog that you can download onto your personal device. You may also find some of these books on the FREE eBook app, Open eBooks

We encourage you to check out Brooklyn Public Library's A Universe of Stories Summer Reading website. They have lots of free programs and events for all ages throughout the summer.

Inquire about all of these options and services at your local Brooklyn Public Library branch.

We can't wait to hear about all the great books you've read over the summer! Have a great one!

Amanda, Susan, Karen
