Book Reviews of The Curious Boy's Book of Adventure
Book Review: Full of Fun for the Adventurous Boy!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this along with the "Dangerous Book for Boys" for my son, who is nine, for Christmas. He actually picks up this book more often than the "Dangerous Book". It is full of easy to read "things to do" and full of illustrations. My son and his sister especially like the animal traking section. They have taken this book with them on hikes in our back woods - hoping to find some unusual wild animals (like bears, wolves, etc). Lukily for me, they will only see deer, squirrels, and turkeys. But, their imagination goes wild with this book. This book is an excellent compliment for those who bought the Dangerous Book for Boys and worth it for a child who "plays too much video games"!
Summary of The Curious Boy's Book of Adventure
Boys of all ages love to hunt, explore, and discover. They like expeditions, secret messages, and remote hideaways. They love to build, fix, and create. In short, they love adventure, and this four-color paperback is jammed full of 100 hijinks and escapades boys can get into right in their own backyards! Divided into five sections?
? Exploring (with advice on things like how to follow a trail map and row a boat)
? Hunting (bird watching and beach combing)
? Experimenting (erupting volcano, simulating a tornado)
? Building (boats, igloos, sleds)
? Playing (boomerangs, dog-training)
The activities in The Curious Boy?s Book of Adventure reawaken the adventure instinct! The lightweight, portable paperback format makes it perfect for kids to take along on expeditions, and its clearly organized advice ensures that every adventure is a success. A great gift that kids will enjoy all year round!
