The Dangerous Book for Boys
The bestselling book for every boy from eight to eighty, covering essential boyhood skills such as building tree houses, learning how to fish, finding true north, and even answering the age old question of what the big deal with girls is.

The brothers Conn and Hal have put together a wonderful collection of all things that make being young or young at heart fun--building go-carts and electromagnets, identifying insects and spiders, and flying the world's best paper airplanes.

I bought this book for my 9 year old cousin's birthday gift. This is a kid who can rattle off all the Yankees starters and clings to his Nintendo DS like it's the only thing keeping him alive. He unwrapped it and tossed it aside. "Fail",...

- Not as original as you might think...
This book is basically a rip off of the Boy Scout handbook. You want your boy to appreciate the outdoors, lay off the video games and TV for a bit? Don't bother buying this book and going at it alone. Contact your local Boy Scout Council...
