For everyone who loved The Dangerous Book for Boys-an oddly useful and hilarious handbook for the mischievous child in all of us. If you've reached adulthood without knowing how to spin a rope like a cowboy, cure a hangover, or make a citizen's arrest, this is the book you've been waiting for. Funny, far-ranging, and surprisingly handy, the book presents tutorials, including: - How to Be a Real Man: mow the perfect lawn; defend yourself with nothing but an umbrella - Bracing Outdoor Activities: skate backwards; make a boomerang come back; snare wild game - Amusing Diversions: float an egg; eat a goldfish; master fiendish tongue- twisters; judge a woman's bra size at a glance Also includes: - Sumo wrestling for beginners - Four diversions with a banana - And much more

Most parts okay for younger boys, just be careful

My son received this book as a gift for his tenth birthday, and for the most part it is okay. There are fantastic ideas, such as How to count to ten in Cuneiform, or How to Skip Stones, How To Lay Bricks etc. But there are other things that should be reserved for a little bit older boys, such as the suggestion on how to deal with door to door proselytizers by showing them photos of autopsies, gun suicides, and pornographic photos (including horse pornography)
I am normally a *very* open minded liberal mom , (I found it hilarious, and will be trying it myself!) but this went over the line for a 10 year old.

NOT FOR KIDS

Ok how to judge a bra size from across the room... I am sure a bright boy does not really need to know this but then again I am the mom of a child. Us gals do not need a book to be bright.. but then again some do. There are some usefull things like how to thunder fart and how to light your fart which I am sure a boy could not pass up.. but I could have should have just said NO to this book as I bought it for my seven year old. and now i am giving it to my nephew who is going to college. He will find it more usefull.. as he needs some of these skills most definately.
