Synopsis
So much to do, so little time, so best to start early. Full of things to make, achieve, learn (and some things you shouldn't learn) this is the perfect handbook for any child who wants to revel in being young and not-boring. Can you Make an origami crane? Lie convincingly? Operate as a spy? Parents may need these skills (not origami) to wrest their child's copy from them and indulge in all the fun they should have had.

Good idea for a birthday gift
I offered this book to a friend for his birhtday(23), He liked it and we had a lot of fun reading the "things to do".

MIND BLOWING!
This book is incredible, my mum keeps trying to steal it off me!
So far ive only done 5 of the 101 things to do, as some take time. At the minute i am doing "Give up junk food for a week plus!" Its alot harder than it sounds, theres also give up tele for a week and and ur phone. Ideas like run up an escalator when ur ment to be going down, (got chucked out of westfield in derby for that one!) its truly brilliant PLUS only £3!!
Go on what u got to lose?

Good book, but definitely not for adults
I was given this book as a 25th birthday present by a good friend of mine. Having sat down and read through most of it, whilst I can imagine it would be exciting and interesting for children, this book definitely isnt made for today's adult. Of course, this is no reason to criticise the book, however, it is questionable how clearly the book's cover conveys that anyone over 12 would find it dull and patronising.

All in all, it definitely wasn't for me, and is now collecting dust on my shelf...however, if you know any 9 year old girls, i'm sure it would make the perfect present!
