I need to just suck it up and subscribe to The Horn Book, dammit.

This month, there's a whole slew of essays by children's and YA authors about gender and reading.  A few of them are available online -- Cecil Castellucci and John Green, for example -- but there are lots of others, by folks such as M. T. Anderson and Lisa Yee and Gail Gauthier and David Levithan and Jennifer Holm, that I'd like to read.
