How to Be a Person: 65 Hugely Useful, Super-Important Skills to Learn Before You’re Grown Up

How To Be a Person by Catherine Newman is a book that teaches many life skills such as how to clean things, outdoor and camping skills, how to take care of living things, and much more! This book taught me many skills I might need. My favorite parts were the parts when I learned how to read a map and start a campfire and other things about the outdoors. I think the author did a good job of adding humor to an educational book. If she were to write a second book about more helpful skills you might need, I would definitely read it. There so many skills you might need that it’s impossible to cover them in one book. I think ages 9-12 would enjoy and learn from this book. One of the best things about this book is that it relates to many circumstances. From people skills to how to wash laundry, you can easily find an answer related to your needs. I would recommend this book because I think these skills will help me for the rest of my life.
