• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

For the kid who leaves a wet towel wadded up on the floor or forgets to put a new roll on the toilet-paper thingy, witty parenting writer and etiquette columnist Catherine Newman provides the ultimate guidebook of essential life skills for kids.

Jam-packed with tips, tricks, and skills-all illustrated in an irresistible graphic novel-style-this book shows kids just how easy it is to become more dependable-and like themselves better, too!

They'll learn how to clean dirty rooms, care for pets and cactuses, stick up for somebody, and fold a T-shirt. They'll even get a crash course in using the kitchen (including how to turn a 33-cent package of ramen into dinner) and a boot camp for lending a hand outside the house (mowing, shoveling, and fixing something loose has never been easier).

This handbook to becoming beyond helpful promises that every kid can be a valuable member of the grown-up world.
