Guys Read: Heroes & Villains by Sharon Creech, Christopher Healy, Jon Scieszka
4.0
Motivation for reading this was because Cathy Camper and Raúl Gonzalez III have a story in it, which was a fun read. I like the concept of a series that encourages kids to read, and don't mind this targeting "guys" because I've read in many locations they may have lower literacy rates or reading involvement than their counterparts. So, whatever helps get kids excited and stay excited about reading is a thumbs up from me.
There's a nice mix of content with this anthology, and I liked how some writers took heroes/villains in a more literal fun sense while others made it more ambiguous and encourage the reader to make their own judgements. I would definitely read some of the earlier volumes of this series, and hope to discover some new authors along the way.
