Description

From the sewage system of ancient Athens to the muckrakes of the Middle Ages, learn about history from discovering the how and where of the loos of important civilizations.

Quick Summary

This cheeky guide drags readers through ancient sewers and medieval latrines to uncover the most yucky, yet fascinating, side of history. Kids will love the parade of stomach-turning trivia and goofy illustrations that make ancient toilets feel like a sideshow. If your child enjoys the potty-mouthed humor of "Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever Wimpy Kid" and the surprise-filled history of "Horrible Histories", they'll be hooked on this gross-out tour of the past. It's a perfect fit for curious readers ages 9 to 12, roughly grades 4 through 7.
