- Grady Harp‘Marriage ceremonies were generally absent in the ancient world’ – Fun and odd facts!New author Jordan Moore steps onto the Trivia stage with a nod to providing interesting reading material while passing the time at home, In this easy to read (and absorb) book, Jordan offers a cascade of facts that provide not only entertainment but also so educational topics!
Providing an overview of the topics of interest in this book, Jordan outlines his content in the Introduction – ‘As the title indicates, this book takes you on a fun-filled odyssey through just about every nook and cranny of this planet, and far beyond, to bring you 1,572 factoids that will make you scratch your head and give you some fodder to impress your friends and family at your next gathering…Maybe you’ve wondered how some seemingly unmedical things, such as alligator dung, became medical prescriptions. Or perhaps you’ve wondered how marriage became the institution it is today. And maybe you’ve considered how crypto currency began, or how it works…’ And if that tasty intro doesn’t convince you to explore this fascinating book, add in facts about pop culture, sports facts about athletes, strange hobbies, meteorological facts, and even a few facts about weapons of war
Not only is the book entertaining – it is also very instructive. Jordan presents his facts in categories, each fact is short in length and offers a check box to let you know you’ve absorbed that one, and moves along at a pace that is entirely up to each reader. For those who are simply looking for solid entertaining reading to while away the hours, welcome to a field expert! Highly recommended – especially during these times… Grady Harp, July 22 - Beth OdabashianFun book!Bought this as a sticking stuffer for my son. After browsing through the book, I think he’s going to love it. It has some interesting facts that you wouldn’t know.
- Tanky76Affordable!Interesting facts! Great stocking stuffer!
- cllfdla little light, but it delivers what it promisesI tend to read a lot heavier stuff than this, so it seemed a little too lightweight for me, though if you want a book of interesting facts, this one is a good one.
The organization of facts is a clever move and all of them largely belong where they should so the book is neat this way, though sometimes the order does not quite flow from one chapter to the next or between clumps of facts within chapters.
I much would've preferred a book with fewer subjects but the book gives you a lot of trivia and that is what it promises.
Expect to learn a lot of interesting facts here, but don't expect anything that will really make you think hard. This is a good book for inquisitive kids and teens though as most of the information put out in this book is very interesting and it will get people interested in lookinng at at least one of these subjects in more detail and with all that I see out there, something that makes someone excited to learn is a rare treasure and there needs to be more of these. 4 stars for being fun and useful, 1 star off for being a bit too light for my liking. - kaylieFunReally cute and interesting book! Our teen boy giggled and read them off to us for a few weeks
- Elmer R CoxCurious minds bookAwesome book! My son loves this book.
- Amazon CustomerLots of interesting materialThis is a great book, lots of fun things to read. Put it in the bathroom library. Everyone loves it!
- BellafurbaInteresting but NOT for kids.This is an interesting book. I thought this book was for kids and got it for my 9 year old, who loves random facts, for Christmas. It talks about heroin, prostitutes, gambling, meth, necrophilia, etc…not age appropriate.
