They will also enjoy fiction once you learn what sort of fiction they like. In my elementary years, I read nonfiction exclusively until a school librarian told me, "Get out of the numbers" and handed me a copy of The Spaceship Under the Apple Tree and started a lifelong love of sci-fi. But it wouldn't have happened if I hadn't been such an avid nonfiction reader. I'm a big believer in starting boys with they love and finding books to come along with. Once they start reading regularly, you can always recommend more things.Iron Guy Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06719802406868125435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7149640467592149916.post-14732682573699187112017-03-13T22:05:28.381-04:002017-03-13T22:05:28.381-04:00I love that The Magic Treehouse pairs up those fic...I love that The Magic Treehouse pairs up those fiction and nonfiction titles. At my school I found that boys were more interested in nonfiction titles about sports, than fiction. Is this normal?
