Summary: Perfect Father's Day Gift!
Review: In this day and age of political correctness and the accompanying deadly seriousness with which we too often take ourselves, it just plain wonderful to laugh out loud at the pranks and mischievous things boys do, as chronicled in "Up to No Good." Cheers to Harmon for compiling them and to Gilson for her terrific photos! I applaud mischievous imagination over video games which simulate a frightening violence.

Summary: Mischief!
Review: My dad is now raising a son, after two daughters and he says whenever his hammer or saw are gone he looks for his son! With us, he says, "You just sat around and played with your Barbie dolls." Boys ARE mischief! This book reflects that perfectly, especially the photographs. Father's Day is around the corner, and I know exactly what I'm getting my dad-this book!

Summary: It's okay, we're all respectable now
Review: Okay, so I know the editor. That said, I found this to be a delightful read. Quick vignettes guaranteed to make you spew milk through your nose with raucous laughter. My latest fave is the kid who plugged up the shower drain, shut the glass doors, then calmly sat back to watch it fill up until the glass shattered and flooded the entire upstairs.It is a great little coffee table book, although you won't want to leave it around for kids to look through. No, it's not inappropriate material, it'll just give them ideas that will leave your garage in ashes or your car in the gully down the street.

Summary: No humor here
Review: One star is too high a mark for this failed attempt at humor. This book is just another attempt to pooh-pooh the cruelty inflicted upon the underdog, to say, "boys will be boys", and then wonder why the youth of our country turn violent. The pages are filled with abuse towards animals. Shame on anyone who finds humor in this cruelty.

Summary: lotsa fun
Review: this book really reminded me of what it was like to grow up before video games and vcrs were invented - when you had to play outside and use the stuff you found on the ground for toys. some of the little stories i totally believed happened. some of them sounded made up, but then boys will be boys, right? the black and white photography is very nice, too.

Summary: Perfect for the grown man
Review: This book was a lot of laughs. What an initiation into boyhood for mothers with boys too young yet to get in trouble, and what a trip down memory lane for grownup "boys." Makes a good gift for guys. One warning: a couple of stories were "off-color" or not age-appropriate for young children, and plus you may not want to give boys ideas, so I'd recommend it only for adults.

Summary: Quick and fun to read
Review: This is a fun book to make you laugh and to remind you that boys do have a mischievous streak (as if you needed reminding)! The author has collected accounts of the childhood pranks of men who are now (she claims) perfectly respectable adults. There is nothing deep or thought-provoking here, but I laughed out loud many times reading this. By the way, there is no way I would give this to my boys until they have outgrown their mischievous stage! The squeamish among us may wish that the author had left out some of her collection of stories, but overall it is reading that will tickle your funny bone. I wish it had been longer.

Summary: Enjoy & Share It
Review: This is hilarious! I grew up with two brothers and these stories are "spot on". I only gave the book 4 stars because there are so many missing stories... I've given this book to several people and also just shared it with many friends. Every grown man that reads the book is immediately prompted to share his own stories. There should be a sequel...
