Guys Write for Guys Read, edited by Jon Scieszka – YA GUY

Do you have a reluctant male reader? Are you looking for authors and laughs? Then, this is the book for you! From fantasy writer Lloyd Alexander to illustrator Paul Zelinsky, this collection of 88 autobiographical snippets lets readers in on secrets and surprises related to growing up male and reading, writing and illustrating children’s books. My favorites? – Will Weaver’s “Training the Bear” (the “bear” is not what you think), and Jon Scieszka’s “Brothers”. What are yours? Submitted by Sue Parsons, Youth Services Librarian
