Praise for That's So Gross!: Human Body

Mitch knows more totally useless things about useless subjects than anybody on Earth

Chris Tarrant

Animals, creepy crawlies and the human body are tackled in a Horrible Histories way, and each book is packed with the sort of disgusting trivia that delights children under eight.
