I bought this for my 11yr old son - He loves it.
He couldn't wait to get experimenting. I don't think he's realised it's educational.......yet! (although he did want to start on the alcohol experiments first) >>More Details |

As an Australian fan of QI, but still catching up on the publications, I'm a recent reader of a few QI books. The QI Annual brought back meories of the annuals of my childhood, but without the daft makeup tips and silly advice on boys! The QI Annual doesn't aim to be a deadly serious tome full of staid facts and figures, the QI team have done a fabulous job in making the books informative yet fun. I've read the Annual several times, yet I always manage to find something interesting I didn't see earlier. Great for trivia buffs and myth exploders, or anyone who has a fascination for interesting tidbits. A great companion to the show, and a must for all QI Fans.
I already have the QI Annual 2009 on pre-order! >>More Details |

I bought this as a jokey gift for someone who had given me one of the "Is It Just Me" books. I sneaked a read before passing it on (hands up anyone who doesn't do this) and was charmed.
It's a lovely little A-Z of things that make life a little bit better. You won't agree with all the selections, but it's an eclectic mix. Steve Stack has his finger on the pulse - Monkey, the BBC's Beijing Olympics hero is one of the selections. So are Internet communities which is heartening news for those of us who enjoy justifying our participation in them. A smashing gift for anyone who is cynical and apt to offer a jaded view of things. This won't make you laugh out loud, but it will make you smile. >>More Details |

This is a little gem of a book; I bought it thinking it would give me helpful ways of knowing and remembering more about grammar - but it's so much more than this. The whole book is about mnemonics and rhymes as memory aids, grouped into 17 themed categories as listed in the contents page, which is viewable on the 'Search Inside' feature. This book is ideal for flicking open and dipping into whatever page it lands on as it not only cites fascinating facts/trivia it also provides the means for remembering them! To give a flavour of the diversity of information in this book, here's a rhyme which caught my attention (I hope the information's accurate!) on what's good to choose for firewood: Read More: >>More Details |

Its good to have these newspaper stories collected together in a little book. Every reader will have their own favourites but mine fall into food scares, political correctness and genuine H&S issues. Nearly all the issues arise (in my opinion) from inexperienced people misinterpreting the H&S laws or their bosses using H&S as an excuse to mask some hidden agenda such as cost-cutting. If it goes to a second edition, please include some pictures!

A wonderful collection of animal miscellany. It is only let down by an absence of references and the fact that one wishes that they covered more animals.

I love the way different languages can say the same thing in such different ways, and this book is a great example of it. The insults themselves are hilarious - you'll laugh out loud - but they also tell a lot about the culture that they come from and what that culture values. Like, did you know that the worst insult in Finnish is to call someone 'unreliable'? I really enjoyed this book and recommend it. If you know anyone who enjoys languages or travel or just clever turns of phrase, this would make a great present.

My Boyfriend Is a Twat: A Guide to Recognising, Dealing, and Living with an Utter Twatby: Zoe McCarthy August 01, 2007 |
||
|
It continually amazes me how some relationships work, particularly with the complicated structure of a lot of families prevalent nowadays.
Imagine a woman trying to run a totalitarian state, within the four walls of her house in Belgium; she's living with a twit, has several children, is in an almost constant haze of confusion [partly brought on by cheap wine], refuses to conform to most of the traditional roles, yet still wants to retain control - a familiar scenario to a lot of peabrains. The 'twit' in question is a Cumbrian lad whose patience and resilience to Zoe's onslaughts can only be admired by another peabrain like myself. His reactions and ripostes to the torrents of abuse and displeasure formed the basis of a blog, which Zoe then ... Read More: >>More Details |

Borat: Touristic Guidings to Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan/Minor Nation of U.S. and A.by: Borat Sagdiyev November 02, 2007 |

As an old (Kazakh) fan of Borat, a bit disappointed, as the book recycles materials from the movie and the series. After the latter it just doesn't seem funny. Could this be beggining of an end for Borat?
