Customer Reviews

The guide you wished you had in school.

This little book is about 200 pages long and fun from start to finish. There are definitions of thousands of slang words with a neat little collection of violent schoolyard games and their rules at the end. There are lyrics to obscene songs and chants along with poems like the words to Miss Mary Mack.It's book that would suit kids, teenagers and nostalgia buffs alike. All pretty harmless really and would make a great present for any age group.It's a *must buy* for the Christmas stocking.
