Wow, didn't see those! They haven't been updated in so long.

I think it might be time for a more recent, updated thread on the topic. Unless maybe combining them would be better?
stick with the oldest print mishna berura that money can buy. You don't want to spoil the kid
May you slide down the banister of happiness & get many splinters of success up your career.

Not right away.  But it looks good.  His parents might read it.  He's likely to read pieces over time.

Looking for a Bar Mitzvah gift for a friend's son. Checked various Jewish bookstores online. Eichlers has Bar Mitzvah Sets listed: Shut Beer Moshe from the Debretziner Rav, Shut AchiEzer, Chidiushei Rabbi Akiva Eiger.
Seriously? Maybe I am hanging out in the wrong circles but most teenagers I know don't learn Shut AchiEzer yet. I can only hope that they will one day...
