Stink Through the Ages: A Whiffs-And-All History for Brave Kids: Gross and Smelly Historical Facts for Children Fun Educational Book about Ancient Rom (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798257947940)

"History has never been this gross-or this much fun!"
Most history books focus on dates and kings. Stink Through the Ages focuses on the people, the mud, and the smells. It's the book that turns a 'boring' school subject into a riotous family reading session, sparking curiosity through the universal language of "Eww!"

Ever wondered what the past actually smelled like? (Hint: It wasn't roses!)

Take a deep breath-actually, maybe don't-and dive into the smelliest journey through time ever recorded! Stink Through the Ages is the ultimate "whiffs-and-all" guide to the grossest, grimiest, and most gastrointestinal moments in human history.

From the fermented fish guts of Ancient Rome to the "gong farmers" of the Middle Ages, this book peels back the curtain on the side of history your teacher usually skips. Packed with hilarious illustrations and stomach-churning facts, kids will discover:

• Ancient Rome's Garum: Why the Romans loved a sauce made of rotting fish.

• The Mummy Dust Mystery: How Ground-up Ancient Egyptians ended up in medicine cabinets.

• Viking Hygiene: Did they really use communal bowls of water to wash their faces? (Yes, and it's grosser than you think!)

• The Great Stink: Why the River Thames once smelled so bad it stopped Parliament.

• Medieval Toilets: Life as a "Gong Farmer" and the reality of the chamber pot.

Perfect for reluctant readers and history buffs alike, this book proves that learning about the past is much more fun when it's absolutely disgusting!
