    About this ebook

    Never underestimate the power of the father!

    You may think you know all the tricks, but ten-year-old Alec Greven knows that when it comes to dads, you have to be on your toes. Some dads are strict, and some are easygoing, but they all have a good side and a bad side. What you get totally depends on Dad's mood and your attitude. So no matter how old you are or how tight you are with the big guy, trust Alec to help you get down to the bottom of what makes your dad tick.

    Tips:

    There is an 80 percent chance your dad will say yes when your mom says no.

    Video games calm Dad down and put him in a better mood.

    If you think Dad is going to let you run wild, you are wrong!
