520    For the kid who leaves a wet towel wadded up on the floor 
       or forgets to put a new roll on the toilet-paper thingy, 
       humorous writer and etiquette columnist Catherine Newman 
       has created the ultimate guidebook to becoming a person 
       whom everyone will like being around more. Jam-packed with
       tips, tricks, and skills -- all illustrated in an 
       irresistible graphic novel-style -- this book shows kids 
       just how easy it is to free themselves from parental 
       nagging and become more dependable -- and they'll like 
       themselves better, too! They'll learn how to deal with 
       dirty rooms, care for pets and cactuses, stick up for 
       somebody, and fold a T-shirt. They'll even get a crash 
       course on using the kitchen (including how to turn a 33-
       cent package of ramen into dinner) and a boot camp for 
       lending a hand outside the house (mowing, shoveling, and 
       fixing something loose has never been easier). This 
       handbook to becoming beyond helpful promises that every 
       kid can be a valued and valuable member of the grown-up 
       world.
