 Perfect for a pre-teen January 2, 2008
Pepper (OKC, OK USA)
This book is well-written, informative, and to the point. We bought it for our nephew who is an only son in a single mother raised household. We read through the book before giving it to him and thought it was the perfect book for a pre-teen boy. We highly recommend it!
 It's got some good, and some not so good January 1, 2008

Great information, presented at their level. HOWEVER... there are things in there that I objected to, especially boy on boy crushes. Not what we expected. We will, however, use it to speak about morality all the way around.
Curfew and a few other things kind of get off topic, and are not something that this book should be interfering with as far as parenting goes. We felt that it was trying to do so.
Great Book!! October 11, 2007

If you are looking for a book to help explain the changes that boys will endure as they enter puberty, this is the book to get! The layout is wonderful and it thoroughly explains everything. There is just enough information to answer any questions boys may have. I reviewed this with my son (who is 13) and he felt more at ease knowing some of the things that have, or will start, to happen to him are "normal." He especially was receptive to the fact that he will start to grow taller (as he is on the short side) with puberty. Overall, I highly recommend it!!
 Great information about a confusing time: August 31, 2007

I bought this book for my son. I have read the entire thing cover to cover and have decided that he is only ready for some of the material at this point. He will be allowed to read the whole thing in a year or two. This book gives great info on health and hygiene as well as changes in the body during puberty. There are comments about becoming sexually active that I am not comfortable with at this point but I think that may just be because I don't think my son is old enough for the details.I do recommend this book but encourage parents to read it and decide for themselves if their son(s) should read the whole thing or not.
Perfectly Prepares Boys of This Age April 9, 2007

No questions needed after my son read this book. This book if perfect for boys. It touches base on hygiene and taking care of yourself. Some of my husband's friends got a kick out of reading it, but it perfectly prepares boys that need help or have any curious tendencies. I am so glad I found this book. I highly recommend this book for parents with curious boys.
