Synopsis

This book explores the complex relationship between boys and reading, addressing why many young men struggle with literacy or avoid books altogether. Drawing on interviews with boys and men, it uncovers the societal expectations and stereotypes that shape their reading habits. Educators and parents will find practical strategies to motivate reluctant readers, support those who struggle, and enrich the lives of those who already love to read.
