We are the parents of a seventeen year old boy. We started Booksforboys.com in 2003, when we realized that we had a very reluctant reader on our hands. The situation became even more difficult because he was having difficulty selecting books that would interest him. We were frustrated that he wasn't reading enough. The cartoon character gives you an idea of how frustrated we were. 
Finding books that interested him became our mission. So we started reading. We searched for books that we thought he would be interested in. After reading many books, and eliminating many more, we were able to provide him with some books that he actually enjoyed reading. Our son likes horror, comedy and adventure type stories. The first book he read on his own was Cirque du Freak, A Living Nightmare, by Darren Shan. He really liked it! It was a priceless feeling to see him read a book on his own, and enjoy it. He has read the entire series. He has also enjoyed The Boys From Brooklyn, by Salvatore Tomasi; The Last Mission, by Harry Mazer, and Hatchet, by Gary Paulsen. He is still a reluctant reader, but he now knows that reading can be enjoyable. As he prepares for college and completes his SAT’s, he realizes how important reading is to his professional success in life.
The Booksforboys.com website makes it easy to find books that boys will like. After reading a book that he actually enjoyed, your son might be more open-minded when he reads a school required literary classic; Maybe he will get more out of it.
