Episode 082: Reading to our boys

“If boys do not learn to read by the third grade, their whole future is an upward battle.”

This week’s guest is children’s author Robert Gould. Robert is lit up by getting our boys engaged in reading. As a boy he learned to link reading with love while sitting on his grandfather’s lap being read to. Recognizing the vitality and visual nature of young boys, he set out to create content that would engage young men, and to give them books they actually wanted to read.
