Ripley's Believe It Or Not! A Century Of Strange! (15)

My 13 year old daughter immediately started going thru this book the day it arrived! The whole time she was looking thru it she just kept saying, "What??, Wow!, and mommy come see this!" She has also taken the book to school to show all her friends. As a parent, you can see the spark of curiosity in your kids eyes as they go thru the images and articles while asking you to join in, which makes it enjoyable for the whole family. It has even started some very interesting conversations! Life is such an amazing adventure and the Ripley's Believe It or Not books are able to highlight many topics of the human experience from around the world during current and past times including the strange, curious, creative and even natural wonders. They really do a great job!!

First off, this book has a gorgeous cover. The colors are beautiful and its really nicely put together. My kids absolutely love looking through this book at all of the interesting pictures. This would make a really fun book for a coffee table or as a gift for someone who has an interest in the different or bizarre. It's a great conversation starter and a really fun read. I would definitely recommend this book!

This book was for a small boy who wanted it for Christmas. It was a gift, picked randomly, from a list of seventeen students. He was thrilled to get the book. I know the teacher. But, I did not know the student. The book made him very happy and me as well.

Ripley's has done it again. Their annual books are always so much fun to look through. So many great, creepy, bizarre, fun and interesting stories and photos. Even a fun experiment or two, but I wouldn't recommend trying them at home! This book is absolutely stunning, and a great way to spend some time with kids, looking through the pages at all the oddities. We never tire of these books!

This book is packed with a lot of facts I didn't know and includes some nuggets I heard about but forgot. The accompanying pictures further enhance the enjoyment of the book. I like that the items are mostly organized into categories--such as animals, people and pop culture. I found myself saying "Wow!" out loud many times and relaying what I just read to whoever would listen. It is a lengthy book and takes a while to go through. The only thing I found as a potential drawback is sometimes trying to decipher what text goes with the picture. Overall, a great book.

We purchased this for our 11-year-old son and he immediately said he wished his school had this book in the library so his friends could read it. The pictures are incredible, the facts are amazing and best of all...it keeps his interest for at least an hour at a time. This is the kind of book you will want to look through time and time again. Thanks, Ripley's!

This book was really interesting, because I learned facts that I never knew. Thanks for this experience. I will be looking forward to the next one. It was really fun to read.This book is full of amazing facts and photos. I recommend it to anyone that wants to be freaked out or amazed.

Very Interesting

Very good quality in the making of this book. Very colorful and a lot of pretty cool things in it. Should've gotten one for my husband as well as he couldn't leave it alone until I got it wrapped for Christmas, lol.

Love it have a friend who made it in this book for making a child size Star Wars fighter jet
