Growing Great Boys

There is no doubt that parenting is a special challenge in today’s fast-paced, media-driven world.  In Growing Great Boys, parenting guru Ian Grant shows how to work with the essential character of boys, using understanding and emotional support to raise loyal, passionate, hard-working, sensitive, funny, fearless and strong men.

Growing Great Boys is brimming with practical, positive and informative parenting advice for raising great sons, from the vital preschool years through to the challenges of teens.  It includes chapters on the roles of mums and dads, and on the special challenges faced by solo parents.  Hot tips, quotes and action labs encourage parents to take a hands-on approach, coaching their sons to succeed in the game of life.

    Another great book from Ian Grant. I’ll be disappointed when this guy
    retires. He provides good practical advice in a funny way. It’s great
    to find a book on parenting writen by a bloke – it just makes it more
    accessible somehow. I’d recommend this to other dads out there.

    this is yet another great book from Ian Grant. Has a great section on single parenting for boys. Well worth buying

  • Nelles

    This is a fantastic book full of practical ideas; highly recommended for
    all those who have boys. Easy reading and great to refer back to;
    certainly worth having a copy on hand if you have boys.

    This one of my favorite books. II thoroughly enjoy this book. I raced
    through it and was eager to share my learning with those around me. A
    fantastic book especially for first-time parents like me.

    My mum bought me this, its pretty good, and it definatley shows how different raising boys can be, i like the quick tips

  • Leshjack

    I thoroughly enjoyed reading Growing Great Boys. Extremely reassuring
    for solo parents, great advice with detailed examples of how to cope in
    different situations. It’s the best parenting book I’ve come across,
    and I refer to it regularly as my 3 year old boy grows.

  • Mrsvea

    I really enjoyed this book and constantly refer to my marked pages. My
    favourite part was all the great ideas for starting your own traditions,
    we have far too many in this day and culture! Awesome book for mums to
    understand boys better and dads to realise just how important they are
    in their sons life. Highly recommended!!!
