How to Avoid a Lightning Strike by Nic Compton

Its an urban jungle out there, and if its not the survival of the fittest, its certainly the survival of the most practical. But hows a boy or girl supposed to learn lifes essential practicalities in these days of hustle, bustle, and laid-back parenting? How to Avoid Being Struck By Lightning is the solution. Its a mentor, a tutor, a driving instructor, a mom, a dad, a grandparent, a scout instructor, and a coach rolled into one. Dividing life into four sections, and then subdividing its challenges into manageable chapters, its the most practical manual on the planet, offering step-by-step guides to the essential skills required for every practical challenge. If theyre not essential theyre not here. If they are, they are.
