Book Reviews of A Boy's Guide to Life

Book Review: MUST HAVE for Boys
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great book for boys! My 8-9 yr old son refers to it all of the time... I constantly catch him reading from this book. We have started giving it as birthday gifts. Chapters include great subjects: Money; Social Skills & Graces; Social Studies; Safety, Hygiene & Grooming; Stuff to eat; Fixing & Making Things; Things to do Inside; Things to do Outside; Animals & Plants.

Chapter contents example are: Money: Chores for Cash (Snow shoveling, Raking yards, vacation specialist, washing cars) , Ways to make more money (start a collection museum, lemonade stand, helping grown ups get on the internet, toy auction), What to do with the Dough (saving money, what's compound interest... the rule of 72, investing... bears and bulls)

Chapter Two: Social Skills and Graces includes teh following: Mind your manners...special situations, thanks, death, phone numbers, tying a tie, tipping; Friends ... how to make a friend, Sportsmanship, How to be a real jerk, Party Stuff, How to set a table, wrapping a present.... and the list goes on and on and on and on. Hopefully this gives you the flavor of the book.

This is written by kids for kids and it is awesome!
