This book is very interesting even though it is kinds old.The book I read is interesting because it has a woman who her waist size is 8 inches long and that is scary but at the same time very amusing. There was also a woman who's finger nails were extremely long. This book interested me so I did like it. I recommend this book my friends in school.

An interesting iteration as always of the annually published Guinness World Records.

I particularly liked the Hall of Fame which showed some of the most prolific Guinness World Record holders who have dedicated many years chasing and setting new world records each with their own motivations for doing so.

The usual topics are covered including the natural environment, science and technology, sport, and the most fascinating and sometimes jaw dropping human achievements chapter ranging from records such as most cockroaches eaten in a minute to the most airline sickbags collected, eeew!

Librazo, únicamente recomendado a personas con alto nivel de lectura. Le pongo 4 estrellas porque creo que el reto de las pinzas en la cara lo hago yo. Me sobran hasta mofletes.

The Guiness World Recird book by the Guinness World Records company is a fantastic book about crazy and unlikely records. This is an informational text so there is no storyline but it is still an awesome book. There are lots of different sections of this book like nature or entertainment section which have records of plants and lots more. I think the Guinness World Records company decided to make this sieres to help people gain popularity and make reading fun.

I connected with the book because some of the hockey records like most goals scored in a career were much more that I will ever score. I learned so many things i would have to wright a different paragraph but here are some of the things I learned like that the deadliest jelly fish is called the box jelly fish that is located in Australia. I would defiantly recommend the book to anyone because some of the records are awesome and it is a fun book to read. I think this is an awesome book because it is fun to read so overall its a great book.
