Abstract:Explores the interaction between readers and books through classroom observations of 10 and 11 year olds reading and discussing the book "Bill's New Frock" (Anne Fine). Reactions from the 32 participating students appear to confirm the notion that girls and boys are treated differently. Included is a survey of the literature on feminist theories of reading. (GR)
