How to Tell When You're Really Old! is the result of hundreds of interviews with young children ages three to twelve, who were asked to explain how they could tell when someone was really old. It began as part of a larger class project by teacher Kristi Porter and the children of Happi Kamper Child Care, located in North Muskegon, Michigan. Each child was to create an individual gift book for his or her parents, and How to Tell When You're Really Old! was simply to be one chapter in each child's book.

Their candid, uncensored, and often hilarious answers will not only make you rethink the aging process, but are sure to become instant favorites, as you get a quick glimpse into the amazing and intricate minds of some of the most delightful and fascinating children around.
Autorenporträt
Kristi Porter has over twenty-five years of experience working with young children, both as a preschool teacher, and as an award winning child care provider. She holds a degree in Early Childhood Education and Development, as well as a national Child Development Associate Credential. In 1999, she was awarded the Governor's Quality Care Award for her outstanding commitment to the care and education of young children. Always a reader, Kristi never thought much about writing until she entered a writing contest sponsored by the Detroit Free Press. Her story - The Worst Vacation Ever - went on to be published in a travel anthology that was distributed worldwide. This was followed by numerous articles published in local magazines and newspapers. As her love of writing grew, she added adult fiction, how-to books for parents, and short humor pieces to her repertoire. But kids and writing aren't all Kristi relishes. She also enjoys bicycling, video games, photography, Facebook, and spending time with family. She lives in Michigan.
