4.0 out of 5 stars
Good advice from a good friend at a good price!,
By Edward Jones (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 101 Things Teens Should Know Big Sister'S Guide (Paperback)
What better gift could a younger brother/sister want? As a younger brother myself, I can really see where the advice is coming from. The best part of the book for me is actually knowing Lindsay and realizing that she humbles herself inthat book by letting the reader know that while the advice she offers is the "right" thing to do, it is not always the path Lindsay herself chooses.
