Reviews
'Debates about boys falling behind in school, mostly due to poor literacy skills, tend to become shrill - a boys versus girls quarrel. That's why William G. Brozo's voice is so valuable. He brings scientific light, not polemic heat, to the discussion and lays out valuable and unique advice for both parents and educators.' Richard Whitmire, author of Why Boys Fail

Synopsis
This is the ideal resource for practitioners in the field of literacy or undergraduate and graduate students in literacy and related programs. The book's wide coverage of the topic also makes it suitable for scholars in gender studies, learning disabilities, and additional language acquisition., Too many boys do not like to read, are choosing not to read, and are suffering academically as a result. All concerned adults need to redouble their efforts to ensure that boys who bring the greatest challenges to our classrooms and schools receive responsive literacy texts and practices to increase their chances for academic, personal, and occupational success. This book is more than a compendium of techniques, it also provides an analysis of the research literature on central issues and related aspects of literacy and learning for boys. The author identifies issues that impinge on boys' literacy development and explores what the research literature has to say about these issues. The descriptions of how teachers have used engaging texts and practices to help boys overcome low literacy engagement and skill in order to stay on course as readers and writers are highly informative and practical as models of best practice.
