I'm just happy to receive the book. The book covers all the relevant topics. Review: Great book but not to be just gifted. Being discrete in relaying information to the child. - The book has a lot of things for parents/ caregiver to assist the boy child in the family to guide through. But it's not a book which you can give to a 12 or a 14 year old to read and understand. There is a lot of information which an adult needs to assist a child to understand. Remember age doesn't define the stage of development a child is in, this is something one needs to assess themselves. This book's information can be shared at different points of development.
