Title: What Stories Does My Son Need?: A Guide to Books and Movies That Build Character in Boys by Michael Gurian, Terry Trueman ISBN: 1-58542-040-9 Publisher: Jeremy P. Tarcher Pub. Date: 01 June, 2000 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $9.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.8 (5 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Simple & straight to the heart
Comment: A wonderful list. Yes, as other reviewers point out, there is 'nothing new here'. But parents today are bombarded with books and videos for kids and don't often have time to sift through them all as thoughtfully as the authors have done here. They've done a wonderful job of reviewing stories we know and love from a boy's perspective. My 6 year old gets way too much pressure to act like a girl, I'm grateful for movie & book reviews that acknowledge not just that it's ok to be a boy, but actually quite wonderful. The discussion questions may not be the ones you want to ask, but they get you thinking along the right lines.
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent Idea, But Left Out The Best One
Comment: This book is an excellent idea. However, the authors left out what I have found to be the best one for our sons AND OUR DAUGHTERS. Add the book, "West Point" by Norman Thomas Remick to your list (in fact, this should be first as it gives the basics). It's a veritable education in character and leadership.
Rating: 5
Summary: Practical, and fun to share with your kids
Comment: This book is a small-but-potent guide to finding positive entertainment amid all the negativity and violence that's in the movies and television today. I'll take Gurian's suggestions over Doom or the WWF anytime. It outlines 100 movies and 100 books for all age ranges, and my family has benefited from it.
