Misreading Masculinity: Boys, Literacy, and Popular Culture by Thomas Newkirk

4.0

Closer to a 3.5, presents an important message about literacy and boys, including quite a bit about how writing and reading instruction isn't reflecting what we know about boys.

This was written in 2002, so a lot of it feels dated, but so much of it unfortunately still rings true. The book is very specific, so it probably has more value for educators, but it could also use an update.
