So I asked this question via Twitter and Facebook, “[What is] your must read books for boys (11-14) that would teach essential things for manhood (spiritual, leadership, relationships, lessons)?”, and I have compiled a quick rough draft from those and other recommendations.  I hope to cut and add in order to have a finished list of ‘must read’ books for my boys to read their 12th (or 13th) year of life.  Here are some ideas that might make the book list:

• Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations - Alex & Brett Harris
• A Guy’s Guide to Life - Jason Boyett 
• Hatchet - Gary Paulsen
• The Teen’s Guide to World Domination: Advice on Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Awesomeness - Josh Shipp
• The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens - Sean Covey 
• The 6 Most Important Decisions You’ll Ever Make: A Guide for Teens - Sean Covey 
• Sex Is Not the Problem (Lust Is): Sexual Purity in a Lust-Saturated World - Joshua Harris 
• I Kissed Dating Goodbye - Joshua Harris 
• Take Your Best Shot - Austin Gutwein 
• The Greatest Salesman in the World  - Og Mandino 
• Richest Man in Babylon - George Clason 
• Pursuit of God - A.W. Tozer 
• Jesus Freaks - DC Talk 
• Case for Christ Student Edition - Lee Strobel
