This is not a guidebook. And it s definitely not-for-parents . It is the real inside story about one of the world s most colorful continents - Europe. In this book you ll read about bizarre pastimes from wok racing and mobile phone hurling to grown-up food fights and rotten shark chomping. You ll learn the gruesome facts about some of history s most bloodthirsty rulers and can check out sculptures made of human bones, the world s biggest pizza, ultracool ice hotels, and a metal-munching Frenchman. This book shows you a Europe your parents probably don t even know about.
