5 out of 5 stars Fun for the whole family   May 28, 2009
I bought this book for my wife for Mothers Day to be from our daughter (she's 4 so kinda difficult for her to do it).

My wife has loved it and so has the rest of the family. We do family night every week and it has been a source of some great activities and fun learning times.

I have to give the book two thumbs up.



5 out of 5 stars Informative and fun.   May 2, 2009
My daughter enjoys this book and goes back to it once in a while. She tries out some of the ideas and have fun doing them.


5 out of 5 stars Adventure for tomboys and girlie-girls!   April 3, 2009

We love this book, and "The Dangerous Book for Boys". It is full of ideas, facts, and stories that will inspire imagination and adventure. From jump-rope songs to stories about famous female spies to instructions for how to make fake blood - this book is loads of fun for any kid. I have recommended it to others and will continue to do so!

This is by far one of the most interesting and unique books I've come across for young girls, heck even us older gals. It takes so many in depth looks at everything and anything you could want your daughter to know. My 10 year old daughter is fascinated by it. It shows you how to build a lemonade stand, play basketball, jump rope double dutch, read palms, tie knots, self defense moves, etc... There are also wonderful introductions of women of the world throughout history. Great stories about Cleopatra, Mary Queen of Scotts, and even a little folklore. It captures a bit of everything leaving you with a desire to know more. And that's exactly what I want for my girl, to want to know more... Fantastic!


2 out of 5 stars More bad than good   January 26, 2009
  2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I agree this book has a few good things within it's pages. It does include what some might think of as 50's mentality; in other words, innocent common sense. However, although something like changing a tire could be helpful and valuable, I was very disappointed with things like karate and palm-reading. The problem is, there are so many more important life lessons that should be presented and are not. In my opinion, the bad and frivolous in this book far outweigh the good, and isn't worth the money spent on it no matter what the price.
