2003-03-04 Overcoming the Obstacle Course: Teenage Boys and Reading
|

the library’s collection and the young adult area within the library to assess guy-friendliness. Includes a list of professional resources to help
teacher-librarians, and a list of “sure-thing” titles for boys in middle

|
|
"Do as I say, not as I do." That's a line parents have sometimes used on children. And it has never worked: because, as we all well know, children are programmed to learn by observing us. As parents, our actions say much more than our words. We are our children's primary role-models. But, when it comes to reading, we often forget this important fact. We may read to our kids, we may buy them books, we may take them to the library, we may even litter our living rooms with a wide assortment of reading materials, but we don't always read ourselves for pleasure, right in front of them?
