With a month of summer still to go, I am making a decent dent in my reading list! This year, it's even longer because from now until the end of 2021, for every book purchased through shopDisney.com (my publisher), Disney will donate a book to First Book, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing new books and educational resources to educators who serve children in need. So when you pick up any of the Explorer Academy titles, know that you're making it possible for another child to join the adventure.
Also, if you buy EXPLORER ACADEMY from shopDisney drop me a line through my contact page and I will send you a signed bookmark to thank you for helping to benefit First Book.
I'm thrilled to share that latest release in the series: THE TIGER'S NEST is part of Disney's Summer Reading List. Hooray! No matter your reading level, the list features some great fiction and nonfiction to dive into, including a couple of books that I read and can highly recommend: Zeus The Mighty and National Geographic's Photo Basics. It's not too late to get in on the fun. Be sure to check out the complete summer reading list HERE.
Finally, EXPLORER ACADEMY #6: THE DRAGON'S BLOOD releases in less than two months! I can't wait for you to read it! In this installment, the explorers embark on their most challenging expeditions yet. For Cruz, it is a time of self-discovery as he seeks to make sense of the family mystery he is slowly unraveling. More surprises are on the way as Cruz faces new revelations about his destiny and those determined to keep him from fulfilling it. EA 6 launches October 5th, but you can pre-order the book now through your favorite indie bookseller or HERE.
Have a great end-of-summer, everyone. Stay safe and healthy and keep reading!
