Kevin Johns: Bought a a graduation present for my niece and she loves it

Pam: My son is not typically a reader, but I bought this book for him for high school graduation. I was hoping he'd read it as he was headed off to a large 4 year university and was hoping it would help set some expectations. Social media sometimes leave kids with unrealistic expectations. He DID read it and seemed to enjoy it. The book helped set expectations for living with people, interacting with new people and he even noted that book said you may have to go to some things by yourself. it was exactly what he needed and it's on his way in college!

Kenneth C. Davis: This book was a big hit with three high school graduates that we gave this book to. All of them loved it. We gave them out as high school graduation presents along with some other items. But, this was clearly a hit with them after we spoke with them later.

J.D.: As a parent of a kid going off to college, I can easily say I wish all students would read this book. It’s great that the excellent advice can be given by someone other than the parent/guardian (ie. kid is more likely to read). The multitude of advice topics are given in short, clear entries and there are excellent resources. Get the Parent version for you too.

Margaret McKayMargaret McKay: I can not comment on the content. I bought this as a gift and it showed up looking worn, with writing on the cover, a small dog ear on the corner of the front cover, a small fold on the back cover, and a general feeling of having been extensively handled. Maybe it was a display model for several years. The content may be fine, but for a gift, it does not look nice.
