Not to pass the buck on helping your kids find books to read... but let me introduce you to the wonderful world of Guys Read, created by the former teacher and now famed author, Jon Scieszka. (Did you know he was named the first official National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature?) Guys Read's "mission is to help boys become self-motivated, lifelong readers." There are loads of book recommendations and links to dozens of authors' websites. While geared to boys, there's plenty to appeal to the girl who is not interested in pink fairy books. Give it a try.
