If there was ever a question about the need for books that boys wanted to read, this answers that question.

Yeah, boys seem to be less interested in things that take more effort to acquire. Something about the instant gratification mechanism. I co/wrote an article for the Minnesota Christian Chronicle that talked about the negative effects of a digital world and the importance of reading.
