– How velcro was invented by a dog
– Why the Ancient Greeks wiped their bums on dinner plates

Another magnificent book from Adam Kay. He’s such a favourite in our household and the children couldn’t put it down. Informative and side splittingly funny – it was a joy to hear raucous bouts of laughter coming from behind the books.
