My 12 year old really enjoyed reading this book about phobias; I found it interesting as well. The research was done well and stated clearly. It spoke of celebrities and some of their phobias and even gave a little tidbit on how to overcome such fears. Overall a decent read/reference. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. Fun read! 50 phobias explained, information how one might wind up with such things, and a few tips on what might be done about them. The best part is the number of famous folk around us suffering from some of the most unimaginable fears, for instance, buttons! Worth a read just for that. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I was so happy to have won this book from Zest Books on LibraryThing. It was everything I thought it would be and more. I have always been interested in weird phobias so this book was right up my alley. It was well written and well researched. I especially enjoyed reading about the germ phobia because it gave me some helpful information about dirt NOT being all that bad. It was interesting to learn of certain celebrities who have some of these phobias, especially Lucille Ball's fear of birds. It makes me wonder how she was able to film the episode of I Love Lucy where she dressed as superman for little Ricky's birthday party. She crawled out the window and hid on the ledge with a bunch of pigeons. They even landed on her! Then there was another episode, when they were living in Connecticut, when she decided to buy chicks and go into the chicken business. I wonder how she handled that episode. This is a book for teens and adults alike. I'm sure my kids will enjoy reading it as much as I have. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. Do you fear pigs? Do clowns frighten you or are you more afraid of flying? Then this is the book for you! Scared Stiff explains phobias from A-Z and includes the history of the phobia, famous people and their phobias, and fun facts and quotes. I loved this book. A fun and interesting book about phobias for teens and adults alike. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

This would be a great book for a rainy day at the cottage. Since it is a book that you can pick up for just a few minutes and pick up at another time it would be a great book to leave in that other "reading room :)". Please note that the book is not making fun of people with phobias. These are real fears and can alter the way a person lives.
I received this book for free in exchange for providing an honest review. ( )
