Amusing Book

This was a birthday gift for my 16 year old daughter, who had requested it. She has really enjoyed it.

More useless fun!

Did you know squirrels account for over 1 million trees planted per year because they forgot where they buried the nuts? If you like trivial information that is fascinating, this is the book! Purchase the other one as well. I love it as well as my students! There's always a chuckle to be heard when my students read it. I recommend it!

There's no such thing as useless information!

I actually ordered this book while on a daily special, so it was inexpensive. I enjoyed it because it is a quick easy read...great for dr appointment waits, etc. Nice format, fun info

FUN, FUN AND MORE FUN

A fun, interesting book and a good one to have on the kitchen table when you and your friends get to yakking about trivia, or just to start up a conversation. It also answers a lot of questions that you might get from one of your children, or if a teacher (who's expected to know all), from the students. I liked it and would recommend it to others, who appreciate knowing "useless information," like me and my passel of friends, always committed to learning "new stuff."

Fun Book

A fun book, great for irritating bar conversation. Really does have useful information presented in a humorous manner. Entertaining reading.
