💨 Abstract

A new initiative in a D.C. jail offers poetry and music to young inmates as an escape from their daily routine. Educators stress the importance of reading during summer for high school students aiming to take college admissions tests, particularly focusing on fiction books like 'The Great Gatsby' and 'Ghost Boys', and nonfiction books by authors such as Isabel Wilkerson and bell hooks. Reading is crucial for expanding vocabulary and improving comprehension skills.
