How to Be a Person: 65 Hugely Useful, Super-Important Skills to Learn before You’re Grown Up By: Catherine Newman

Author: Debbie Fong

This how-to book for kids aged 10 and up passes along essential life skills — without the parental nagging.

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, writer and etiquette columnist Catherine Newman has written a guidebook to becoming a person whom everyone will like being around more. Jam-packed with tips, tricks, and skills — all illustrated in an graphic-novel style — this book shows kids just how easy it is to free themselves from parental nagging and become a more dependable person — and they’ll like themselves better, too!

They’ll learn how to deal with dirty rooms, care for pets and cactuses, stick up for somebody, and fold a T-shirt. They’ll even get a crash course on 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).
