Summer Reading 2018 as recommended by The English Department The Department of Modern Foreign Languages The School Library St George’s Students and Teachers
Dear St George’s Community, We invite you to spend your summer visiting faraway places, meeting intriguing new people, and going on exciting adventures. A good book can help you to do all this with the power of your imagination! At St George’s we value the importance of reading, as it can help to develop and improve a range of skills such as language, vocabulary, communication and critical thinking. It also helps to foster curiosity and creativity, as well as enabling us to learn more about the world we live in. To get you started on your journey, we have compiled this extensive reading list. There is something for everyone in here, based on age, language, and level. We aim to update the list each summer so that you can keep reading, exploring, and expanding your horizons. Happy reading!
