I can only say how tremendously disappointed I was by this book. The book encourages girls to read tarot, play "Bloody Mary", and venture into other avenues of the occult. My son adores the Dangerous Book for Boys and I had high hopes that this book might rival it for my daughter. If one's only hopes for "daring" must entail tangling with the occult, it is a sad day for young girls everywhere. Somehow they managed to intersperse a few bits of fun with the objectionable material - we clipped out the section on hand jives before ripping off the cover and recycling the book. So disappointing.
I have been listening to this while at various airports around the country and I think it's very fun. Great to listen to and I think it'd be very empowering for the younger generation.
I asked if there was anything interesting in there - "I guess so" was the reply. I bought this book for my 9 year old daughter. 2 hours later, she tucked it into her book bag so she could read it at school. As soon as I opened the box the cover caught her eye. After dinner she curled up in a chair and was flipping pages. I'm a dad and we often do crafts and outdoor projects like tire swings, and tree house. We now have several new things to try.I even learned a few things when I managed to get the book away from her.Fun reading - recommended.
The only part that may cause some concern with parents is the Slumber Party Games. This book is great. Shows lots of things for girls with some words of encouragement. They show "Light As A Feather, Stiff As A Board" and "Ouija Board". Some parents might object to this but other than that, all is good.
if i had this book i wud read it more than if i more books that i got
