GUYS READ

For a few years Jon Scieszka, a noted children's author has created a webpage www.guysread.com

This mission of this webpage is to make boys "self-motivated and live long readers". Jon and his fellow guys read authors have created wonderful lists of books, magazines, and cereal boxes for guys to read with the hope that we will create new readers.

I have decided The Davis Academy needs to get involved with the Guys Read project. Today I created a book display of Guys Read titles and strategically placed guys read logos in the hallways to spark conversation (it's worked so far...a few students have asked questions: YEA!)

I have printed off a Charter Application from the Guys Read webpage and invite all Guys to become charter members of The Davis Academy Chapter of Guys Read. Please stop by and sign the charter! Click here for a copy of the charter.
