"Raising boys is exhausting, confusing, infuriating . . . and absolutely awesome." In Boy Lessons: What I've Learned from My Sons, Jeff Johnson shares a secret he's been keeping about fatherhood: you learn as much as you teach. Jeff and his wife, Sondi, helped their sons through everything from brotherly fights and irrational fears (clowns, thunder, off-brand toilet paper) to "promposals" and their first teenage jobs. From toddlerhood to that self-centered stage before they left for college, their sons, Thor and Rolf, had many lessons to learn-but every stage included plenty of unexpected lessons for their dad too. A few tidbits of wisdom he learned . . .* Other people's kids aren't as perfect as you think. * Save the real battles for things that truly matter. * Take conversations when they come (even at bedtime). * They become frugal when money is scarce.* Pray together whenever you can.Every boy is beautifully unique, and predictably the same. All boys go through similar phases and challenges and cause their parents the same headaches and joys. Filled with reflections that are at once familiar and new, Boy Lessons will help you understand your sons better, put their behavior into perspective, and be a better parent.

One day I was 12 years old and broke. Then Grandma gave me Grandpa's old riding lawnmower. I set out to mow some lawns. More people wanted me to mow their lawns. And more and more. . . . One client was Arnold the stockbroker, who offered to teach me about "the beauty of capitalism. Supply and Demand. Diversify labor. Distribute the wealth." "Wealth?" I said. "It's groovy, man," said Arnold. If I'd known what was coming, I might have climbed on my mower and putted all the way home to hide in my room. But the lawn business grew and grew. So did my profits, which Arnold invested in many things. And one of them was Joey Pow the prizefighter. That's when my 12th summer got really interesting.
