What do boys read? And why do they stop?
2019
Overview
[...]I have been told by teachers and parents that boys might not read my girl-protagonist books. Because 'they only want books with boy characters.' [...]Alex is going through that experience right now. [...]he also worries that the boys he knows have stopped reading, calling it \"a big deal.\" Since the boys I talked to are still reading, I also wanted to know what they are doing to help their friends stay with books. [...]Max does think those kids might come back to reading when they get older, when the memory of reading as 'work' fades away.
