A Great Book -- Better than Similar Volumes

There are now (2008) several books of this genre on
the market. "The Dangerous Book for Boys" is is still the one that I highly recommend for other parents with boys aged 8 to 12 (as well as for boys-at-heart). It stands out from similar volumes because of the broad and pertinent range of interesting topics covered, as well as the high quality visual presentation.

Great fun!

It is a very fun book and it had great inspiring stories. A great gift to handy guys.

This book has everything!

Such a wonderful treasury of lost information and just plain fun, fundamental knowledge for young men. A must buy...

Great for Boys and everyone else, too!

Bought this for my son. He keeps it by his bed and opens it randomly to find something interesting.
He often brings it downstairs with him to ask us questions about things he's read, and if we can try this or that. We love it! We've made several of the projects, and he has learned so much about history and literature from it. He really enjoys it!

Only one issue with this book...

I bought this for my nephew. I had thumbed through it at the toy store about a month ago and liked what I saw so I thought I would give it a shot. Of course there's no pleasing everyone. Upon closer inspection after receiving this book I was a bit disappointed in seeing "The Ten Commandments" in this book. Then I realized - well, every boy should know something about the great fiction of our time, too. If part of that is the "Ten Commandments", so be it. And it's only one page. I didn't see any other hidden religious instruction in there (I looked). Hopefully there isn't any more. I'd hate for my sister (who has chosen not to indoctrinate her children into any specific religion) to be unprepared for that. I'll be mentioning it to her so when the boy has questions - his parents can explain that clap trap to him. So for those of you raising your kids with an "other than Christian" religion (a non-Abrahamic religion in general) or no religion at all - be aware it's in there so there are no surprises.
