this is probably the best book I read on raising boys, and made we aware of the double standards and the way we raise boys that are confused on issues. It made me stop and re think what I had done, and what I needed to change

This one is on my keeper shelf! So insightful, and yet very readable at the same time. I bought a copy in an airport to read on the plane -- I couldn't put it down the whole time!
