What Customers Say About The Dangerous Book for Boys:

I received an extremely painful paper cut whilst reading this text. This IS a dangerous book.
This book is a copy of an old book i have calledTHE GREAT AMERICAN DEPRESSION BOOK OF FUN.by John Odell printed in 1981.
Share it with your boys. Get it. You'll enjoy it too, I promise. I bought this book thinking that I already was a great dad & I knew everything of importance that needed to be instilled into my boys daily process of growing up living our American dream.I was mistaken. This book has so much great information in it-things I did & tried to do, but forgot about.
I gave this to my 50 year old brother-in-law and ended up reading most of it before I would wrap it.It brings back memories and makes you think of memories you'll be creating in the future.
It's just FULL of stuff that's interesting to young boys and adults. I bought this for my 11 year old son as a gift and have spent many nights reading it with him. Last night we read through 'Girls' and 'The Declaration of Independence' He's excited to build trip wires to set off alarms on his younger brother.
