Daring to go with Dangerous

I'm excited to see that a version of The Dangerous Book for Boys targeted towards girls, The Daring Book for Girls, will soon be available, and has at least one good review (I haven't looked for any others). I know targeting towards a particular gender is basically a marketing ploy that preys upon a societal emphasis on gender roles (good, bad or whatever), but it's nice to see that the girl version doesn't sound like it's all fashion dolls and home-making related activities.
