Have you ever wondered why some people seem to be laughing, giggling and having fun all of the time? How do they do that? Author Ted Schredd was vexed by the same questions. He had to find out the why's, when's and how's of having more fun. After fifteen years of hands-on research in fun, life, the self-help genre and how they all relate to each other, he has unraveled the mystery.

5.0 out of 5 stars There is no F in brilliant, January 7, 2003

This review is from: Gramma Knows the F word (Paperback)

Written with the style and authenticity of a self-help guide, this book really flies in the face of the genre. Ted does it beautifully with simple yet accurate descriptions of what does and doesn't add up to fun.

Through cartoons and wise words, Ted provides a dot-to-dot (paint-by-numbers) on how to get some serious fun back into your life. Try out a few and get rid of mind pooh - that's my mantra from now on.

This review is from: Gramma Knows the F word (Paperback)

This book was so inspiring. I read it and I passed it on. I wish that it was required reading for every adult. There are so many people out there who are afraid to have fun because someone might laugh at them. That is sad. This book will remind you that it is okay to lighten up and do the things you want to do.

This review is from: Gramma Knows the F word (Paperback)

After having read Mr. Shredd's first book "The Cycling adventures of Coconut Head", I was really looking forward to the new book. I wasn't dissapointed, Mr. Shredd has been able to break down the barriers that seem to grow with us as we get older. "Gramma Knows the F Word" helped me rethink my situation and question whether I had the right outlook on life or not.
It helped bring out the kid in me with simple words of wisdom, and hilarious cartoons. I would highly recommend Gramma Knows the F Word, and that's why I gave it a five out of five.
