YAdudebooks (young-adult dude books) was launched in 2021 by Pam Withers, co-author of Jump-Starting Boys: Help Your Reluctant Reader Find Success in School and Life. Pam is also an award-winning author of more than 20 young-adult outdoor-adventure novels particularly popular with teen boys. (www.pamwithers.com)
We're proud of our team of about a dozen reviewers. We are well aware that some people will say there’s no such thing as a “boy book” or “girl book,” and we half agree, but still feel this site may fill a gap, and be useful to some. Due to current societal norms we still live in a time where those who identify as boys tend to read less, and perhaps differently, than their peers.

In that way, they can really change society for the better." – Stuart Gibbs, author of 42 middle-grade novels. Featured today at https://yadudebooks.ca/
