Written on June 13, 2008 Summary: Almost perfect I loved the way that the boys in my library clawed their way to the table to look at it when I was done presenting a booktalk on this volume. From taking notes on how to do dog tricks to asking if they could copy the pages on making a go-cart and tree-house they were thrilled with it. But then the librarian in me came to the last few pages where the authors list favorite books that every boy should read. By boy they obviously mean someone over the age of 15 and that was my first minor problem with this book. I am dealing with elementary/Jr. High boys and while some of these books were appropriate for them, many were just way over their heads and it says right there--more mature readers. After seeing that, I relooked the book over some more and did come to the conclusion that while it is wonderful, it is probably something that is best enjoyed as a father with his son. Yes there are some great ideas for boys there and yes, I love the idea of getting boys out and just letting them be boys--but I just think it would have been so much better if there had maybe been a couple of books published instead of just one. One that had all the fun things for the boys to do and another that had things like the battles and other more scientific type things that boys can sit and discuss with their Dads. I realize that discussing war is important for all boys, but I just didn't see the mix. SO in conclusion--great book just wish that they had decided on which age group they were really truly aiming for.  Written on June 8, 2008 Summary: The way things used to be Many, many years ago boys were taught this kind of stuff by their father's and their father's fathers. Boys are no longer introduced to this kind of helpful information. This book is beyond a helpful guide to knot tying and history. It is a well rounded piece of literary art. I have never read a book that teaches one how to build a bow and arrow on one page and how to treat a woman respectfully on the next. My mother, father, husband and 11 year old son were equally interested in this book. That is pretty rare in and of itself. Written on June 1, 2008 Summary: Great book for young or old I bought as a coffee table book - people love to flip through it and end up reading in great depth. Each section is a treasu trove of info. Written on May 28, 2008 Summary: Great Book! When I saw this book at a friend's house I was very curious as to what it would contain. To my surprise I found it contained everything my brother Boy's Scout Book had and more. I had to have the book. This book covers everything a boy or girl needs to know about how to do things, where things are, what things are and what can help you in life. What an excellent book. Everyone should have a copy. Written on May 24, 2008 Summary: A Book My Son LOVES A friend gave my 6-year-old this book and he LOVES it. When he first got it, we read through, cover to cover. Now, he likes to look back and try things (like growing crystals or hypnotizing chickens) one at a time. I love that he's so curious. (Though, after the first read-through, he won't let mom look at it again -- it is, afterall, a book just for boys!) |
