4.0 out of 5 stars This is a childrens book, 27 Oct 2008
By 
Lark (North Coast of Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: The Truth About Love: Facts, Superstitions, Merriment and Myths (Hardcover)
Know what you're getting with this book I guess, I had a lot of questions about exactly the things which the blurb suggested this book covered, like the customs associated with marriage, the exchange of rings etc. however the book doesnt deal with any of these subjects in any great depth. I had to give the book less than five stars because I felt a little mislead about it.

This is a childrens book and from that point of view its not so bad, you could read it with a child and allow the content to really be a prompt to any further questions, the chapters arent long and probably would hold the attention of younger readers.
