Media Reviews
"A highly informative and practical book about the need to develop independence in boys" - Bookseller Buyers Guide, 2008 -- Bookseller Buyers Guide
Mention -Book News, November 2008
"This is far from a dry read, and the text is interspersed with examples of what to do and how to do it, quotes from boys themselves, as well as bullet points that reinforce the main points of each section. There is a particularly topical and interesting section on the role of positive male role models and the influence that this can have on a boy's success. There is enough relevant material contained within this slim volume to make this an appealing and informative read for parents and carers of boys." Community Practitioner, April 2009
"...aims to highlight what can be done to improve boys' performances in school...features responses from numerous boys on a variety of issues...allows the reader to get different perspectives on a problem." SedEd, October 2009
