"A really unique book that can be lifesaving for the many kids who don't fit the narrow old ideas of what maleness is. It will widen the perspective ofchildren and parents alike. It also covers emotional intelligence so beautifully. Such a lot in just a few pages." Steve Biddulph, author, Raising Boys Have you ever felt you should act a certain way or do certain things, just because you're a boy? This book encourages young boys to broaden their ideas about what it means to be a boy, supporting them to feel free and proud to be who they truly are. Every boy deserves to be themselves without apology, and know that being themselves now will make them the man they will become in the future.More details

He loves nothing more than getting a brief that covers a subject from the other side of the world--whether that's the animals and inhabitants of Yosemite Park, Chinese inventors, Victorian ghosts, or girls being rescued from towers by giant owls.
