- My Bluford High Boys: How a Book Club for Reluctant Readers Proved the Naysayers Wrong Stevenson, Sara Reading Fluency Clubs Reading Motivation Males Low Income Groups Reading Attitudes Middle Schools Middle School Students Recreational Reading Hispanic Americans Reading Skills Librarians School Libraries Cartoons Culturally Relevant Education As a middle school librarian in Austin, Texas, the author has been running weekly book clubs for years, which covered many genres that appeal to a wide cross section of kids. When approached by a group of Latino boys from low-income families, the author was inspired to run a Bluford High book club for reluctant readers. The author shares how she connects with reluctant readers so they would feel comfortable discussing issues in a book club and describes how the club helps improve the Bluford boys' reading fluency.
