Following a quasi-experimental, causal-comparative design, this study measured the impact of mirror books on high school sophomores’ attitudes toward reading. The participating high school has a high minority population, many of whom come from low-socioeconomic homes. The instrument of measurement was the Survey of Adolescents’ Reading Attitude. Using a control and treatment group, an intervention was implemented that consisted of 15 minutes of students’ sustained silent reading of mirror books as compared to reading library circulation books not identified as mirror books. Data were analyzed using a one-way analysis of covariance. Results indicated no difference in student attitudes among the two groups.
