Books and summertime
go together."

I'm going to read all the Newbery Medal Books before long! I've read 14 so far out of the 90 that have been awarded. I have to read them somewhat quickly because each year a new book is awarded and added to the list.
These are the ones I have read so far and my rating of them:
Moon Over Manifest (2011) 5/5 stars
When You Reach Me (2010) 4/5 stars
Crispin and the Cross of Lead (2003) 5/5 stars
Holes (1999) 5/5 stars
Walk Two Moons (1995) 4/5 stars
