The main thing we wanted to find out with this thesis was, can Reading aloud help the natural language development. We also wanted to know how libraries in Sweden work with Reading aloud and if children with reading and writing problems are being helped by being read to.

When Reading aloud, which attributes are important to highlight for girls and boys according to the teachers? Which books do the teachers consider "good" gender literature?The paper is based on the theoretical grounds of social constructivism, gender as construction, gender conscious pedagogy and Reading aloud.

The thesis is based on qualitative interviews. Those interviewed have participated in "Book Wheel".
