Summer Reading

Submitted by Stephanie Hamann, MA, LPC, NCC

There are people that find summer a time to relax and to catch up on reading or other things that they find enjoyable. I thought I would list some of my favorite books in many areas for you to check out as you have vacation time or additional time in the car in order to read. Enjoy the list, and feel free to email me and recommend your favorites to me! I can be reached at shamann@chdevelopment.org.
