A Seriously Smart Boy Is a Dangerous Thing to Leave Bored
Give a curious boy a quiet afternoon and he will find something to do with it.
Whether that something improves the household is another question entirely.
The Seriously Smart Boys Fact Book offers a safer proposition: 2,000 fascinating, peculiar, surprising, and occasionally unbelievable facts gathered from some of the most interesting corners of our world—and a few places considerably farther away.
There are dinosaurs and black holes, wild animals and remarkable inventions, sports records and ancient civilizations, strange workings of the human body, scientific discoveries, enormous machines, and enough wonderfully odd knowledge to keep a curious mind occupied for a good long while.
HE'LL DISCOVER:- Why the universe is considerably stranger than it first appears
- Incredible animals that possess talents humans can only envy
- Dinosaurs that make today's most frightening creatures look rather modest
- Astonishing things happening inside his own body every second
- Sporting records and achievements that hardly seem possible
- Inventions and discoveries that changed the world
- Historical facts they somehow forgot to make interesting in school
- Plenty of peculiar facts he'll take great pleasure in repeating at the dinner table
This is not the sort of book that demands a boy sit down, straighten his back, and prepare himself for an education.
That would give the whole game away.
Instead, he can open it anywhere, read a fact or twenty, jump between his favorite subjects, challenge his friends, test the family, and quietly become more knowledgeable while believing he is merely entertaining himself.
Parents may choose not to mention this arrangement.
Ideal for birthdays, Christmas, road trips, vacations, rainy afternoons, reluctant readers, trivia lovers, and curious boys who never seem to run out of questions.
There are 2,000 remarkable things to discover inside.
And considering how many things a boy can get up to when he's bored, putting a few thousand interesting facts in his hands seems a remarkably sensible investment.
Order The Seriously Smart Boys Fact Book today—and give that curious mind something worthy of the trouble it can cause.
