Product Description

Product Description

A tornado in South Dakota picked up a passenger train, spun it around in mid air, and placed it back on the tracks facing the opposite direction - A man in Mexico was stabbed to death by dry spaghetti during a hurricane - A scuba diver was found at the top of a charred tree, after fire-fighting planes deposited water from a nearby lake on to a forest fire - Three men jumping from a plane without open parachutes landed safely after their fall was broken by a cloud containing hailstones - New York sewers are alive with alligators - Want to hold an audience? Then equip yourself with a good supply of urban myths, those ever popular - if ever unreliable - tests of truth and gullibility. The Book of Urban Myths is an unputdownable collection of runaway rumours for all who enjoy a good yarn, or want to avoid being spun such in the future - a hugely entertaining read that will enlighten the credulous and surprise even the most hard-nosed cynics.

1.0 out of 5 stars Fine for kids!, 20 Feb 2003
By A Customer
As a book for older children this would be fine. As a book of urban legends for adults, well dont bother! It is too short and takes about 15 minutes to read. It is too simple and is written in story book fashion. As it is spaced one legend per page, and a lot of the stories are only half a page long, a lot of space is wasted and therefore makes the book even shorter than it first looks! The stories are written obviously with children in mind and it is does not give any detail or information, and is written in such a way as to make the urban legends totally unbelievable and a complete fabrication. Which totally defeats the object! I'm really disappointed with this book and even though the price is pretty cheap I still think that it does not reflect the value of this book. One for the kids only!
