<p>It's here: Volume One of the official Guys Read Library. Jon Scieszka's Guys Read initiative was founded on a simple premise: that young guys enjoy reading most when they have reading they can enjoy. And out of this comes a series that aims to give them just that. Ten books arranged by theme featuring the best of the best where writing for kids is concerned. Each book is a collection of original short stories but these aren't your typical anthologies-each book is edgy inventive visual and one-of-a-kind featuring a different theme for guys to get excited about.</p> <p><em>Funny Business</em> is based around the theme of-what else-humor and if you're familiar with Jon and Guys Read you already know what you're in store for: ten hilarious stories from some of the funniest writers around. Before you're through you'll meet a teenage mummy; a kid desperate to take a dip in the world's largest pool of chocolate milk; a homicidal turkey; parents who hand over their son's room to a biker; the only kid in his middle school who hasn't turned into a vampire wizard or superhero; and more. And the contributor list includes bestselling author award winners and fresh new talent alike: Mac Barnett Eoin Colfer Christopher Paul Curtis Kate DiCamillo (writing with Jon Scieszka) Paul Feig Jack Gantos Jeff Kinney David Lubar Adam Rex and David Yoo.</p><p>Guys Read is all about turning young readers into lifelong ones-and with this book and each subsequent installment in the series we aim to leave no guy unturned.</p>
