Product Description:

The Daring Book for Girls is the manual for everything that girls need to know—and that doesn't mean sewing buttonholes! Whether it's female heroes in history, secret note-passing skills, science projects, friendship bracelets, double dutch, cats cradle, the perfect cartwheel or the eternal mystery of what boys are thinking, this book has it all. But it's not just a guide to giggling at sleepovers—although that's included, of course! Whether readers consider themselves tomboys, girly-girls, or a little bit of both, this book is every girl's invitation to adventure.

- this book is for young girls and grown women!
I LOVE THIS BOOK!! It reminds me so much of my childhood. I bought it for myself, but had a wonderful time sharing it with my Nanny (my grandmother.) Although I'm pretty yound and my Nanny is pretty old, we both had fun reading through this book and remembering the things we did when we were little! This is a great book for a mother and daughter or a grandmother and granddaughter to share, and will be charrished for years and years!

- Just What I Always Wanted
I was buying the "Dangerous Book for Boys" for my husband's nephew when I saw this book. I ended up buying "The Daring Book for Girls" for me, and two copies of the boy book - one for my husband's nephew (aged 9) and one for him. I love this book so much I recommend it to everyone, and I'm buying a copy for sister for her 12th birthday next month. It has loads of fun information on real life princesses, how to power a clock with a lemon, how to tie knots, etc. Very useful and entertaining.

"The Daring Book for Girls" by Andrea J Buchanan and Miriam Peskowitz is just amazing. Girls just don't chit chat or play with dolls.

This book is multicultural as it talks about how to wear a sari (mainly women in India wear a sari), explore Africa, learning French and Spanish words. I liked how the book talks about famous historical figures who were women like Joan of Arc and their brave deeds and the women who served in war. The book appreciates a girl for her dainty qualities and need to keep her pretty, as it demonstrates how ... Read More
