[Leung Ching Hei Kelvin · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book taught some essential skills. Such as cooking skills, repairing skills, home skills, and first-aid skills. In the books, a lot of daily skills can help you a lot. I like the chapter of how to fix the puncture on the bicycle tire. It really useful for me because I always have a bicycle ride in the New Territories. Also, the chapter on how to tie a sling was brilliant also. I like to have outdoor activities with my friends. The skills will come in handy when someone is injured in outdoor. But, the book did not have too many photos. It struggled me a little bit. Especially the chapter of wearing the bow tie.
