Alec Greven, the nine-year-old ladies man
At his age most boys demonstrate their affections for a girl by punching her in the arm and running away, but Alec Greven has already written a book on dating.
The little lothario initially penned his romance manual 'How to Talk to Girls' as part of a creative writing lesson at primary school in Castle Rock, Colorado.
But other budding Casanovas in his class were so keen to pick up tips (such as '78% of regular girls ditch boys, 98% of pretty girls ditch boys) he sold the handwritten pamphlet for $5.
Since then - despite being younger than many of my failed relationships - he has become a published author and hardback version of his 46-page book has become a surprise hit on Amazon.com
His tips in the £5.99 book include 'Comb your hair and don't wear sweats,' 'Control your hyperness (cut down on the sugar if you have to)' and 'Don't act desperate.'
While the blurb on the book says the tips are good for men 'from eight to eighty' Alec does suggest that dating (going out to dinner without your parents) is for "kind of old" people, who are 15 or 16-years-old.
