Bøger i Totally Gross & Awesome serien

Did you know that every time you sneeze you kill thousands of brain cells? Or that in your lifetime, you'll eat over 35 tons of food--the weight of about seven elephants? This entertaining collection tells you all about your body, from bacteria and sweat glands to gas, stomach-churning horrors, infections, gunk, and leaks. Every kid will enjoy the yuck factor and hilarious jokes!

Take a gross and funny trip back in time. Learn all about Roman toilets (which were never cleaned!), food in the Middle Ages (stuffed porpoise stomach), and creepy cures (boiled worms), as well as executions, the Black Death, and jobs you'd NEVER want to do. Even as you shudder at once was, you'll laugh out loud at the hysterical historical jokes, riddles, limericks, and puns!

Enjoy a little fun, foul science! Find out about stinky space stations, disease busters, criminal forensics, and, of course, pure geniuses and mad scientists. Children will love every one of these weird and crazy facts and jokes, whether they're about long-ago alchemists who tried to create gold from urine or a professor of physics who made dead frogs' legs twitch with electricity.
