This is a colourful, fun books for kids. I highly recommend learning and using "Kakistocracy". You'll be glad you did.The Dictionary of Difficult Words: With more than 400 perplexing words to test your wits! by Jane Solomon has a few that tested me, and I'm pretty wordy.

Boy oh Boy: From boys to men, be inspired by 30 coming-of-age stories of sportsmen, artists, politicians, educators and scientists by Cliff Leek is a terrific addition to any library where young boys can't miss it.

I thought I'd heard it all about Scientology, but I had no idea how criminally evil their activities have been. Aussie investigative reporter Steve Cannane wrote a blistering exposé, and every allegation is footnoted. Fair Game: The Incredible Untold Story of Scientology in Australia is, indeed, incredible.
