Books are probably the best among all the sweet 16 gift ideas for boys. But do not pick up some random story book, that you feel is good. Its important that the book is not only interesting, but is also meaningful. Hence, it is always advisable that you give the chap a set of religious and holy books which would teach him important lessons of life. I would suggest that you compile a set of these religious books namely, the Bible, Bhagwat Gita (the religious book of Hindu religion), the Holy Quran and the Tanakh (holy book of the Jews). All these books contain some very important lessons about life and the reading and grasping of these lessons would definitely prove to be very beneficial. You can easily purchase translations and simplified versions of all these books from any large book store.
