Product Description The men are on one side. The women on the other. They're ready -- they're set -- they're off!... Well...maybe not. Seasoned comedy writers Martha Bolton and Brad Dickson take an unconventional, refreshing look at the over-forty race to the Fountain of Youth. Instead of heaping on the pressure to exercise more, eat less, manage your time, and save all your money for retirement, Bolton and Dickson offer a take-it-easy approach to aging with chapters like: € If Menopausal Women Ruled the World € How to Calculate Your Real Age € I Am Woman, Where'd I Go? € Desperate Grandmas € He Died of What? € Gimme a Head with Hair Filled with gentle encouragement and rolling humor, Race You to the Fountain of Youth will remind you to focus on the things that truly matter -- contentment, personal growth, faith, and joy. Relevant, real, and always funny, this look at the better half of life doesn't ask you to change one thing about yourself -- except maybe to laugh a bit more and worry a bit less.

A Bit of a Let Down July 14, 2010 NY Blogger (New York) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Not funny at all and kind of boring when you're expecting it to be funny.

save your money. This is a comedy routine gone bad. Couldn't finish it and I do my best to finish books I start.
Funny and Makes a Great Gift! February 20, 2008 KDMask (Rochester, Planet Fab, NY) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Martha and Brad are hilarious in their quests for eternal youth. Coming from two different points of view, it's just a wonderful, funny read. After reading this charmer, I decided to buy it for a couple of my friends hitting "big" birthdays this year. Oh, the lengths we will go to stay "young"! If you buy this book, you won't regret it. You may just find a spring in your step and a smile on your lips...
Another great book from Brad and Martha February 11, 2008 D. Halem 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Bob Hope and Jay Leno aren't funny alone. For years, they depended on talented, brilliant writers like Brad and Martha to produce their zingers. In the tradition of all great comedy, this book is a side-splitting look at the aging process: Its up's and down's, its effect on both men and women, and how it challenges everyone from ordinary janes and joes to the most visible people in the world. Both funny and highly relateable, if you like to laugh (and who doesn't?) check out this well-done tome.
SIZZLIN' HUMOR October 15, 2007 HumorReader 19 out of 22 found this review helpful
This is a very funny look at health, exercise, fitness, and everything in between. I thought the comparison of the different ways men and women view their appearance was spot on and made me howl with laughter.
Half the book is from the woman's point of view, half from the man's. Both sexes are vain, but in entirely different ways. As I read I found myself one minute nodding and going, "Yep, I agree with that observation, even though I'd never looked at it that way..." and the next minute roaring with laughter at another funny one liner.
I heartily recommend "Race You To The Fountain of Youth". I give it five stars, something I rarely do.
