Boys, Masculinities and Reading explores elementary students'
interpretations of their experiences of reading and the contextual
influences that impact those experiences. While research continues
to highlight the apparent systematic underperformance of boys in
comparison to girls on national and international reading
benchmarks, this text moves beyond broad generalizations to
consider complexities inherent in notions of masculinity and
associated tensions. Applying a socio-cultural perspective, Scholes
highlights the voices of boys and girls by focusing on their
reading experiences. Examining the perceived, generalized "crisis"
of boys' underperformance in reading and literacy, Scholes
identifies the factors that shape perceptions of masculinity among
different groups of boys across the globe.
