Not all that useful for adults (and I suspect there are better things out there for teens), but the book is small and not intimidating (for teens that might not want to read a lot) and the cover is attractive. ( ) Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. This book was received for free from LibraryThing’s Early Reviewers in return for a review. A book that provides life skills for a wide range of topics with everything from stain removal to curing hiccups. Divided into sections each topic carries do’s and don’ts as well as labeled diagrams to illustrate each step. This is helpful for those who learn better through visuals rather than by text alone. Compact for storage, there’s a great section called “How to Read this Book” as it’s not meant to be read front to back but instead used when the situation arises. And if you think you’re already skilled enough and wouldn’t glean anything new from this book there is a great way to slice onions included inside. There is room for improvement though. Some topics reference other skills and use section numbers when really page numbers would be more helpful. As well, like activities should be grouped together. For example, bow ties and ties are together but separate from ironing pants. Why not collect all clothing skills together in one area to make them easier to find? Intended for audiences of all ages, this book is useable in a variety of situations. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. (Non-fiction, DIY) Instructions for many basic but necessary life skills. Suitable for teens moving out for the first time. Read this if: you’re off to college or to find your place in the world. 3.5 stars Note: I won a copy of this book on Library Thing Early Reviewers. This did not affect my rating. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. This thin book gives straight forward easy to follow instructions on dozens of household tasks. Most of these activities I have done many times and did not find them worth reading; however, my daughter enjoyed reading the book and my son was thrilled when I gave this book to him. I really wished I had this book when I went to college. If you need to learn how to change a flat tire, iron a shirt, tie a tie or sew a button, this book is for you. I think it would make a practical graduation present. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

They may seem simple in retrospect, but you don't have to turn all your laundry pink more than once before you learn that it's best just to get things right the first time. The How-To Handbook packs over 50 essential life skills into one handy reference book, and uses dozens of illustrations to show readers the very best ways to: Thread a needle Pitch a tent Tie a tie Treat a bee sting Chop an onion...and much, much more! .
