   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.

   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!)

   Summary: Brought back memories
Really liked this book. Bought it for my twin grandsons. Not sure how well they are using it, but I was very tempted to keep it for myself. The book is loaded with information of activities that I remember well when I was a young boy. There is absolutely nothing bad about this book since it is loaded with many wholesome activities which will provide a fantastic learning experience for any boy.

   Summary: Boys just wanna Have Fun
Remember the classic days when tanning skins, playing chess, and archery were naturally part of a boy's education? Welcome back!

This cool book has everything from tying knots to survival tips, instructions for "marbling paper" (a gorgeous and artistic project I didn't even know an average person could do), how to play poker, and even a few naughty projects to do when you're bored in school. There are also geographic, historical, and even grammar tips for boys; just about anything a boy could need to know is in here. While not all of these things would be fun for me personally, I can tell just reading this book will be a blast in itself and make it hard for me to sit still.

Just as a minor note: this book is NOT sexist. Just a few people have claimed this, but it's still ridiculous. The title says "For boys", not "ONLY for Boys". What do you think the author's going to do, guard the bookstores to make sure no female buys it? I'm a woman and I'm getting it; moreover, I'm a social feminist and I don't mind the title in the least. Heck, I love that it's shamelessly old-fashioned. I've always wanted sons and I can't wait to share this book with them when I do have them.

But until then, it's all mine! :)

   Summary: A great book for all boys (and parents of boys)
This book is a wonderful, educational, coming of age book for all boys. It includes all kinds of stuff that every boy needs to know. I picked this up for my brother who just became the daddy of a little boy and he was very excited to see all the different instructions, games, and so on in the book. Even though my sons are teenagers now, I'm still going to pick up a copy for them.
