Do you want to read a good book? Summer of the swans is a fabulous book worth reading. This book is by Betsy Byars. This book is about a 14 year old girl named Sara and her brother Charlie. Charlie is a boy who can not talk which makes him depressed. One day Sara goes to the pond nearby with Charlie to see the swans. Charlie immediately falls in love with them. When Sara says that it is time to go home Charlie does not want to go. When they finally get home it is getting late. Charlie has a hard time sleeping because he wants to see the swans. In the middle of the night he sneaks out to go to the lake. On his way he takes a wrong turn and gets lost deep in the forest. In the morning they find that he is missing. Will Charlie ever be found?
Summer of the Swans is a great book. It is fiction and a little bit adventurous. This is a book that you would like to read if you like page turners. I enjoyed this book a great amount and think everyone in the world should read it.
