I agree with Daniel. There is not a lot of good books these days, and the ones that are o.k. are like 50 years old. I think that there should be more young authors because they know what we like to read. Most of the books adult authors write are not good because they don't know what to right. The reason i don't like to read a lot is because all the books are no good. Some of the books are good but those are for girls only. There are no good boy books out there because the ones that are written are by adults and they don't know what they are doing.
If i were to write a big series of books for boys, i would write about a huge storm that destroyed or a time that i went and shot a big deer or something that would get his attention. I would also write about something that was a really funny thing, not some chezzy joke that i told in 1st grade. Boys like stuff that Jeff Foxworthy, Ron tater salad white, of Larry that cable guy says because that is crude and that is what makes boys laugh. If that was what they wrote now then there would be a lot more guys reading. The girls i wouldn't really have to worry about because they have all of there gossip and girly books.
