Summary
Over the course of history men and women have lived and died. In fact, getting sick and dying can be a big, ugly mess-especially before the modern medical care that we all enjoy today. How They Croaked relays all the gory details of how nineteen world figures gave up the ghost. Readers will be fascinated well past the final curtain, and feel lucky to live in a world with painkillers, X-rays, soap, and 911. (From the publisher.)
Mrs. Lassley's Review
I am not big on reading nonfiction, but I heard from another librarian that I needed to read this. She was right! It is so great. Not only does it give you a great history of each person and then what led to their demise, the book gave you details about other parts of their life. This is a great read aloud book and I would highly suggest it!
