Editorial Reviews

For a good, solid learning experience with a smattering of rich humor, I suggest you take hold of Mark DuPre’s How to Act Like a Grown-up. You won’t want to put it down until you are finished. I am still smiling.

—Gavin MacLeod, actor, The Love Boat and The Mary Tyler Moore Show

Just before reading How to Act Like a Grown-up I had just finished reading an autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, a man who was known for his common-sense proverbs and his everyday wisdom. I feel that Mark’s book delivers the same theme. Mark addresses everyday situations with an incredibly clear common-sense approach. It is refreshing, humorous, and practical. I believe that it will serve to help and encourage many of us to put on our “adult clothes” and stand up as adults. Thank you, Mark, for opening our eyes to the obvious. Compliance to these principles will make the world a better place to live.
