Fourth Grade Boys' Literacy from a Mother's Point of View.
Wheeler, Mary Alice
Language Arts, v61 n6 p607-14 Oct 1984
Describes a study of mothers' observations of fourth-grade boys' reading habits. The results indicated that the boys' reading did not really decrease as they grew older, but rather, that their interests were expanding into what is considered a "male literacy," which begins to include less and less sharing of reading experiences with their mothers.
