4.0 out of 5 stars Simply Astounding, September 30, 1999

By A Customer

This wonderful palm-sized instruction manual is chock full of helpful hints and tips to get a young lady or gentleman through often difficult times. As a friend of the Editor and Contributor, I can tell you that the clues between the covers came straight from the mouths of the Worlds largest idols and teen icons. Many years and long hours went into the making of this extensive collection. I highly recommend this book as well as the original Little Instruction Book series. I hope there will be a second edition!

2.0 out of 5 stars Edited with boys in mind., May 29, 1999

By A Customer

There were a few gems but they were hard to find. For example, Stanley Kramer's "Take your work seriously--and yourself not at all" was a lot more valuable than Christian (pro basketball player) Laettner's comment to "Study hard. Work hard. Have tall parents."

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book for both parents and kids, August 4, 1997

By A Customer

This is a wonderful book for parents and kids to share with each other. Many times kids won't listen to advice from their parents, but when the same advice comes from Shaquille O'Neal or one of their favorite ballplayers they sit up and take notice. A must for any parent trying to raise kids and any kid trying to raise parents.
