Every summer, I find myself locked in a legendary reading duel with my nieces and nephews. The stakes? My dignity, a clean house, and—let’s be honest—a chance to be pelted with water guns or serve as their butler for a day. They hype each other up, and the trash talk echoes through June like a war drum. But this year, my 7-year-old nephew is reading circles around us all! He devours books like the first Harry Potter and Narnia, yet his maturity lags behind his reading prowess. So, how do I keep things fair and thrilling? Should I give him bonus points for tackling thicker tomes? Or is there a hidden trove of age-appropriate, advanced reads I’ve missed? I’m torn—do I risk introducing him to heavier themes, or do I handicap myself and let him run wild? Fellow book warriors, what would you do? Drop your favorite book recs and challenge tweaks below. Maybe you’ll even catch me slipping up—go ahead, call me out! 😂 Let’s make this summer’s reading battle one for the ages! #ReadingChallenge #BookRecommendations #FamilyFun #Education
