Zander Lowe, 6th, Elydale Elementary, Mr. DiVirgilio
My favorite activity this summer was reading books. I enjoyed this very much, because I got to get away from everybody, and everything for a few minutes a day. Reading is good for your brain, you have to comprehend everything you read, so therefore, it tests your brain. Books can also make you laugh, cry, or smile. That is why I liked to read over the summer.
