Compiled and edited by real-life literature legend Jon Scieszka, Guys Read: True Stories is a mind-blowing collection of essays, biographies, how-to guides, and more, all proving that the truth is most definitely out there. The book is illustrated by Brian Floca, who won the Caldecott Medal in 2014.
