Description

Oh, Yikes! History's Grossest, Wackiest Moments is an illustrated encyclopedia that explores the messiest, dumbest, grossest, wackiest, and weirdest moments in history. From gruesome medical practices to bizarre cultural traditions, this book delves into the darker side of human experience. You'll discover why certain events and figures are so fascinatingly flawed, such as the Aztecs' brutal sacrifices and Attila the Hun's terrifying reputation. With hundreds of illustrations and photographs, hands-on activities, and a dash of humor, OH, YIKES! brings history to life in an entertaining way. Perfect for kids who love learning about the weird and wonderful, this book is full of surprising facts and insights that will make you think twice about what you thought you knew.
