The thing that makes Skilled Fun and Diane Pope’s titles great for young readers/listeners is the fact that they provide actionable steps to lock in the many, many lifeskills required to have a functional and productive life. You can go so much further in life once you not only know how things work (how to open bank account, do your laundry, save money, pay bills, cook, fix a tire, etc.), but you will definitely gain a huge sense of confidence, and if someone really takes in the knowledge in this title, they will probably have more life skills and confidence than most grown ups!
