Ebook Connecting boys with books: what libraries can do

This is a book for all those who sincerely believe that library services and reading are too good to be missed. It is for people who believe that good reading habits are essential to getting the most out of life, and that those habits are difficult or impossible to acquire if they are not learned early. It focuses specifically on boys in that period when they are no longer children but not yet teenagers, from eight to twelve years old, what we know as the “tween” years. This book is both a warning and a celebration of the things that make boys different from girls and the things that make this age so different from others.
