Opis

Prepare yourself for a gross overload

What's worse than finding a maggot in your apple? Which smells worse: a rotten egg or a rotten leg? What is sick and poo made of? This book explains how being revolted (and sometimes being revolting) can be both incredibly beneficial and stupendously silly in this fantastically informative book. Packed with illustrations, photographs, information, and jokes about all sorts of disgusting things, from bugs, bacteria, and sweaty armpits to exploding bodies and creepy-crawly creatures, this book contains absolutely no boring bits.
