Spotlight Friday: July releases 7.06.18


Time to get ready for the weekend!
Kick up your feet and find a good place to read.
Sharing #booklove for your classroom or library.
Spotlighting a book or two because these books deserve the spotlight!

I think I'm missing a lot of July releases, but from what I have it will still be a busy month!
