Description
"It's no secret that boys in the United States are at great risk of failing at school, due in large part to their disinterest in traditional literacy texts. ... The second edition of [book title] centers on finding entry points for boys who are otherwise disinterested in reading, then engaging them with books that contain positive male archetypes such as the Pilgrim, Patriarch, King, Healer, Prophet, and Lover."
