A guide that provides ideas that help librarians, teachers, and parents choose books guaranteed to grab the attention and interest of boys. It covers genres such as humor, realistic fiction, adventure, sports, fantasy, historical fiction, graphic novels, nonfiction, and poetry.

Barr's new volume helps librarians and educators find the best in DVDs (educational movies and documentaries), educational software and CD-ROMs (including educational programs and computer games of the Sim City variety), and subscription Web sites.

This guide aids the educationalist or teacher in making informed selections of recreational and curriculum-based texts for 12- to 15-year-old students. It provides a comprehensive bibliography of over 5600 recommended books for young teenagers.

Offers annotated selections of over 10,000 recommended books. Arranged by subject with a subject / grade level index, it's aim is to assist collection evaluation, development and reader guidance for the 15-18 age group. In most cases two or three favourable reviews were needed to warrant inclusion.

This invaluable guide enables librarians as well as patrons and teachers to identify the best books for high school readers out of the thousands published each year.
