by Jon Scieszka
What is a typical guy moment, anyhow? Selected by voters at the Guys Read Web site and compiled by Jon Scieszka, this wide-ranging collection of authors and illustrators shows that guys do read . . . and will read more if given things they enjoy reading.
"Though the tone of the entries ranges from comic to poignant and will resonate with readers to varying degrees, all convey a remarkable candor and eagerness to reach out to boys." - Publishers Weekly.
"All in all, it's fun to read true stories from the lives of well-loved authors, and these fellas certainly know how to spin a yarn." - Booklist
"Starred Review. While the anthology arguably contains not one single masterpiece, there's something undeniably grand about this collective celebration of the intellectual life of the common boy." - School Library Journal
