The Dangerous Book for Boys

I had heard about his book a few times and was curious to see what was in it. Most of what I had heard was good. I was even more interested when I recognized the one of the authors as being the Author of Th Emperor series that I have been reading. However I was not so impressed with this book. The information presented is great information such as "Things every boy should have" and "How to Build a Tree House" or "How to make a perfect Paper Airplane". Again great information but I found this very similar to a Boy Scout Manual (complete with the page of badges at the end of the book). Great information in this book but it is nothing more than a pale imitation on a Boy Scout Manual.
