Dear Reader and Parent/Guardian:

The Chattanooga Public Library is proud to present its 2022 Lists of recommended Summer Reading Picks. Chosen by local expert librarians, these titles are great reads and are highly regarded in the book community, receiving many awards, excellent reviews and popular appeal. We hope that the 2022 Lists will help you pick the best book for yourself and your child, grades K-12. All of the books on the Lists are available at your local library. Your local librarian can suggest additional titles.

Reading in the summer helps build on the skills obtained during the school year so that learning continues into the next grade year. We need the support and encouragement of families to ensure that all of our children become excellent readers.

Happy Reading!

Corinne Hill, Executive Director
Chattanooga Public Library
