50 Rules Kids Won't Learn in School

50 Rules Kids Won’t Learn in School by Charles J. Sykes, reviewed by Deborah Trombley, Reference and Teen Services Librarian, Butman-Fish Library

(St. Martin’s Press, 2007, 177 pages, $19.95)

This is a slap you in the face get your act together kind of guide with honest advice from conservative talk-show host, Charles J. Sykes. He sets the tone with Rule #1 “Life is not fair. Get used to it.” My personal favorite is rule # 46 “Check on the guinea pig in the basement.” This would be a great a book for starting family discussions.
