Have you seen this book? Have you heard anything about it? Why is it that we've had to resort to writing books about this sort of thing? What happened to the things we used to innately do when we were kids - bike riding all over the neighborhood until it was too dark to see; playing hide & go seek in the backyards of everyone on the block with about 15 other kids; playing kickball or softball in the cul-de-sac; going door to door selling anything & everything you could think of to make 50 cents for ice cream from the ice cream truck; building a fort out of your mom's old sheets and tree branches? When did it all come to an end and suddenly change?
I am so going to get this book for my son & husband! Talk about male bonding time...

my eleven year old son has several books of this sort and LOVES THEM!! He pulls it out and writes down notes. (insults, see pg. 64, how to tie a slip knot, pg 72, how to get koolaid out of the carpet, pg 13...)
This is on Travis' birthday list this year - he'd love this!
I saw this at the bookstore, but having a child on each arm, didn't get a chance to look inside, so I was wondering what sort of thing was in there! Thanks, Amy!
