Teenage kicks - Clive Gifford

Have you ever ...

Eaten with chopsticks for a week?

Had a shopping trolley race?

Helped out for a night at a homeless centre?

This book will tell you how. With 101 challenges and targets for readers to try out, work towards or aspire to before reaching 16, this book is jam-packed with lots of great ideas, from the simple and quiet to the extreme and profane. With extreme action, travel, jokes and japes, charitable acts and life skills - there's something for every teen to tick off their 'must do' list.

Full of fun ideas -- some just fun, some fun and worthwhile ... There genuinely is something for everyone -- the sporty kid, the geeky kid, the earnest kid, the creative kid. And perhaps sometimes the ideas will be inviting enough to tempt a child to step outside his or her usual comfort zone
