There's apparently a new one called "The Boy's Book: How to be the Best at Everything" which is similar to the Dangerous Book, but currently not available...
Hi Allan, it sounds like you have a good group of leaders to work with. Enthousiastic and energetic. I've interspersed comments throughout. Please feel free...
