Bro-jitsu is a highly stylized form of physical and mental combat that has been practiced and honed to perfection over countless millennia by billions of human beings who all have one crucial thing in common: annoying siblings. The book breaks down Bro-jitsu into three strategies: offensive moves, defensive moves, and psychological manipulation. Each section delivers step-by-step instructions on performing crucial techniques, from the classic Wet Willy to the inventive Full-Body Defensive Fish Wiggle. No sibling should be without it!
Bro-Jitsu is one of the coolest, entertaining, amusing, and most hilarious books ever! I enjoyed every page. This is perfect for those who have siblings (especially for brothers, since girls don't usually get into the physical stuff). The illustrations are also very cute and definitely help you picture the move. It contains three parts; offensive moves, defensive moves, and psychological manipulation. Each sections contains step-by-step instructions on how to do the coolest moves ever!

What I loved about this book so much are the sacred vows you have to read out loud before you start reading all those fun tricks and moves. One vow that I just HAD to laugh at was, "I will strive to physically and mentally torture my siblings to make them stronger, better people." Can I just say LOL?

Wilson teaches you an infinite number of kick-ass moves. There's the teeth snap (this guarantees your siblings' fingers will be nowhere near your french fries), delayed hair pull (just for fun), stealth butt kick, punches, shoulder pin, wrist grab, sleeve grab, and SO SO SO much more! Trust me, there are a ton more of tricks you can do to your siblings, I just mentioned the first few moves listed on the book.

Once your done reading this, I am sure you will be a bro-jitsu master. The steps and instructions are very easy to understand and follow. Read this AWESOME book, and you'll be laughing, and at the same time learning the coolest tricks ever!

A kick-ass book.

This sounds like it's worth reading just from the title, and your review made me even more decided- it's on my TBR list now. (I have a violent much younger sibling who is MUCH sportier than I am!)
