Teenage boys read for an average of 20 minutes a day. Teenage girls spend almost
twice as much time reading as their male counterparts, according to a survey. A survey of
school children for Thursday’s World Book Day found that 15 to 16 years old teenage boys
spent 2 to 3 hours a week reading for pleasure, compared with 4.5 hours for girls. This
‘screen-age’ generation of boys prefers television, with an average of 11 hours a week, and
computer games, played for an average of nine hours a week.
But whenever they were reading, boys were doing so because they enjoyed it, with 81
% of 11 to 12 years old and 76% of 14 to 16 years old reporting their satisfaction with
reading. The most popular author was JK Rowling, writer of the Harry Potter series, and
teenage boys particularly enjoyed the works of Lord of the Rings author, JRR Tolkien.
Girls’ enthusiasm for reading is reflected in their test and exam results, outperforming
boys in English in both primary and secondary school. The survey found that 11 to 12 year
old girls were the most enthusiastic readers, with more than five hours of reading for pleasure.
