Tim McGrath,
By Authors Weekly (Manchester) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Boys' Book: How to be the Best at Everything (Hardcover)
A great little book for boys and probably one that should be given to all boys, but please keep it in context. it is a book for boys not adults. An adult upon receiving it will smile gracuiously and wonder why on earth you have given him a boys book!
Highly recommended for ages 15 and under

I must admit that when I bought this book it was to qualify for free delivery. However, it is probably the best book I have read in a very long time. The instruction provided is just fantastic for boys of any age. (I'm 37.) I could not put it down. Its simple, informative style has given me the (probably misplaced) confidence to try to do some unusual, crazy things. Having read this book I now feel more self confident and cannot wait to train my first parrot, fly my first helicopter, and (re)start to annoy my siblings in ways I previously could not imagine.
An excellent read which I would recommend to everyone (except girls, obviously).

This book is like a slightly dumbed down version of "The dangerous book for boys" I would say that it is aimed at a slightly younger market and is undoubtably good at what it does. Some of the stuff in it is just plain silly, great for the average 8 year old who after reading the page will turn to you and state very earnestly " I can climb a palm tree now". A fun book,not sure how practical the advice given in it is as most of it is never likely to get used.
