I'm thankful that I read through this book before letting my 10-year-old son get hold of it. This is supposed to be an address book FOR KIDS, to enable them to get into the hobby of getting autographs, etc. Imagine my surprise to find addresses of Sirhan Sirhan, Erik and Lyle Menendez (complete with the listing of their claim to fame, "convicted of killing parents", and Cindy Margolis, complete with website address. These are just several examples of inappropriate material in this book. Come on, is this really necessary in a book for kids?

I bought this book for my daughter to use.She needed help with her writing and I thought this would be the perfect tool for her to use.By writing to celebrities and getting their autographs,I thought it would keep her motivated. So far,of the three she has written she has had two returned in the mail for the wrong address.What a waste of my hard earned money.You would be wiser to save your money and surf the web to find the addresses.

I am a teacher and I teach students how to write letters. I ordered this book so that students would have the opportunity to write a real letter to someone they admire.

I think that the book has alot of adresses of people from billy Idol To Steve Young. You get alot of replies from the people you write to. I thought it was a really good book for people that might want to be in fanclubs. If you get it I hope you enjoy it.
