Award Winning!
Want the lowdown on growing up, getting along, school, family, friends, and being yourself - whatever that means? Wondering what other guys are thinking, feeling, worried about, mad about, glad about, and trying to figure out?
Read this book. It's full of things guys need to know. Who says? Guys do. The author surveyed more than 500 boys ages 9-13 about what it's like to grow up today. The six sections in this book - You, Body and Mind, Family, School, Relationships, and Future - are based on topics they brought up.
• Each section has readings with information and advice for different situations
• Results and quotes from the survey keep it real
• A Guy Like You boxes tell about well-known, respected guys who have gone through some of the same things you might run into
• Take Action exercises invite you to think or write about topics and practice new skills
• Fact boxes give you background
• Check These Out boxes point you toward books and web sites where you can find out more
• Tips are ideas that you can try today, tomorrow, or whenever
• Guy Comix take you into the lives of guys who might remind you of yourself and your friends
"Every boy should read this book. It's that good! If you are a boy with questions about growing up - what kid doesn't have questions? - I hope you'll see in this book what I see: a fun, truthful, and important way of giving meaning to the lives of boys and men." - Michael Gurian, author of The Minds of Boys and The Wonder of Boys
