Title: 100 Best Bions
By: Ripley’s Believe It or Not
ISBN: 978-1-60991-219-2
My 13 year old nephew is a huge fan of anything that has to do with Ripley’s Believe It or Not. He enjoys reading their books, visiting their museums and family-friendly attractions. He’s always loved anything that’s weird and wacky!
The 100 Best BIONS book is a must-have for anyone who loves Ripley’s Believe It or Not. It’s a comprehensive guide to the 100 BEST Believe It or Not Stories that Ripley’s has covered over the years. All of them are incredibly hard to believe, but undeniably true!
All of the BION stories are numbered 1 through 100. Each one includes detailed information and several photographs with the majority of them being in full-color. This book isn’t for little kids or for those with a weak stomach. Inside the book you’ll learn about severed heads, the petrified man, vampire killing kits, the headless chicken, stretched necks, bejeweled bugs, the sour toe cocktail, bound feet, skiing squirrels, a canine who ate 50 pairs of socks, severed skulls, the man with the longest mustache and many more interesting things.
I gave this book to my nephew who read it cover-to-cover in just 5 days. He loves to tell his friends (and family members) all about the weird and wacky things he’s learned from this book. It has become quite the conversation starter in the family. This is a great book for any Ripley’s fan.

I think that my kids would love reading this book and all the true strange stories.
I won this book from your blog and it has been a huge hit with my granddaughter and her friends. They love reading about these weird and strange stories.
This is an amazing book to read. I gave one to my nephew and he likes it as much as I do (but possibly for different reasons)
