5.0 out of 5 stars A mums best freind (pardon the pun), 13 Aug 2005
As a woman and a mother i only have third party experience of the vaguaries of the willy. I also realise that the last person a boy wants to ask about his willy is his mum. Some things are just beyond the pale. SO i found this book and what a gem it is. The Boys are 9 and nearly 11. My husband vetted it first because i thought he'd have a better idea of what would be needed in the way of an owners manual being an owner himself. He spent two nights sniggering and giggling and then said it was perfect. Especially for the older boy. We think that the younger boy may just find some of it gross but children tend to read or listen to as much as they can handle then switch off. It is written in a non medical fashion but without any silly inaccuracies that may cause problems later. It also covers related areas such as hygene, the ettiquette of early physical relations with girls, kissing and mutual respect but in a relaxed inoffensive manner that a boy can understand and remember. I'll leave it on their bookshelf so they can dip into it as and when they need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Guide for Teenage Boys, 24 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Nick Fisher has struck exactly the right note in that the book is both entertaining and informative. By writing it in a colloquial style, he avoids filling it full of medical terminology and covers all aspects of the topic in an honest way. I only wish that there had been a book like this around when I was embarking on the rocky road of puberty! I think that it should be required reading for every teenage boy and I hope that schools are aware of its usefulness in tackling the rumours and half-truths that punctuate so much schoolboy conversation on sexual matters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bookshelf essential for boys, 17 Feb 2006
I bought this book a few years ago; far too soon to give it to my son. It sat on the bookshelf ever since and I've been amazed at the number of grown men who've picked it up and commented 'Well I never knew that'!
I've recommended and bought this for many of my friends' sons. It's not a replacement for upfront and honest chat about sex and growing up but its an invaluable help.
My son has had it for a while now and I've found it allows him to read in his own time about topics he may not want to ask about. It has also prompted questions and lots of discussion - especially as he just picks it up and opens it in random places!
