SO YOU WANT TO BE PRIME MINISTER?

Wicks, Ben.

Toronto, McClelland and Stewart, c1984. 128pp, paper, $7.95, ISBN 0-7710-8992-9. CIP

Grades 10 and up
Reviewed by Vic Stecyk

Volume 13 Number 4
1985 July


This is a short humorous dictionary guide of useful words needed to become prime minister from "apathy" to "zenith," the latter being ". . . the pinnacle, the top, ... no more bowing, no more scraping . . . but one step away from zero."

Easy to read, it could be of some use either at grades 10 or 12, more for insight and diversion than for factual data. Similarly useful in the junior high grades.
