You may think you know it all, but you truly never know anything. The Guinness Book of world records has been a big book for a long time. Always giving crazy fun facts and info no one new about. My favorite fact was the worlds first goat that can ride a skateboard! It's hilarious and it pretty good.
Guinness Book of world records 2014 is an amazing roller coaster of things that will get you sick, make you laugh, and make you feel crazy! It's not so much based on the writing aspect but describing the facts so the writing is pretty good. I am definetly gonna get the next addition to this book when it comes out next year. If you want crazy things and amazing facts this is the book for you!
