Courtesy of Teens Read Too
THE BOYS' BOOK OF SURVIVAL is a uniquely comedic book that can help young boys face any situation - from a zombie invasion, to a school dance, to landing an airplane.

There are many educational tips in this book that can be used in real life if one every got lost or stuck in a forest or was in any other dire situation. There are also impractical, yet funny, tips on how to survive alien invasions and disastrous pimples.

Guy Campbell writes witty and useful tips that will keep the reader wanting more. This book is a very quick read and the great illustrations by Simon Ecob only enhance the book's overall satisfaction.

And don't think that this book is only useful for boys; being an 18-year-old girl, I found this book very helpful, as well. I learned how to survive many dangerous situations, such as walking into quicksand or confronting a bear.

No matter your age or gender, this is one fast and funny read.

Great book for boys (and 36 year old big boys)
Bought this book for my 10 year old son. He loves this series of books, as do my 6 and 8 year old boys and my 36 year old husband!!

Fantastic tips for survival, very much an all boy book. When they take this book to school all the boys gather around during playtime to catch tips. A very popular book in our house.

great guide
Great fun guide for growing up boys.
It may become a must on their outings.
Always interesting and useful to know how to deal with aliens, snakes os polar bears...among other things!
