This is a prime example of the books that should be presented to kids at a young age so they acquire a positive position on reading as soon as possible.

I knew that George Washington lost all of his teeth, but I had no idea that his death seemed to be as a result of asking people to cut him and spread beetles all over him. Oh the crazy treatments of the past.....<br />This sounds like a book that I would like to have in my classroom, not necessarily to teach, but rather to have around in case a student had free time and wanted to read something that was fun and educational.Jchaconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11036538626994443167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040911948950965125.post-91182658731631342492013-04-28T21:35:50.398-05:002013-04-28T21:35:50.398-05:00This is a REALLY morbid sounding book which make m...This is a REALLY morbid sounding book which make me REALLY interested in it. I think most people have a mild fascination with death. I think this would be a great companion to either a history or science class. I think a lot of students would be really interested by the topic of death because it is so morbid.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00956852300540469953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040911948950965125.post-83686708028003542602013-04-19T19:43:39.442-05:002013-04-19T19:43:39.442-05:00Ummm...
Wow...
Thats really gross.
But definitely ...Ummm...<br />Wow...<br />Thats really gross.<br />But definitely interesting. I could see a junior high class eating this up, getting really interested. <br />It's fascinating stuff when compared with current medical knowledge how regularly people died of things that could be treated with a simple doctors visit today. <br />I could see this being an excellent history and science crossover book and the unique delivery would make it a lot of fun for students. Even reading it on their own without a lesson attached would teach quite a bit of useful info. Thanks for the disgusting review.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10722825881346148647noreply@blogger.com
