DESCRIPTION:
"Gifts for Christmas" according to Amazon Customer. I am so pleased that we received this book,one in a series, that my eldest son started collecting while we resided in Great Britain. It is a surprise for him and one he really hoped to get for his birthday but couldn't due to the mailing strike. I was delighted to find it at Amazon and I thank everyone involved for shipping it expeditiously. It's value is greater than the cost of the book and shipping. Thank you!. "Wonderful" according to greengirl. I'm very relieved that Mr. Deary wrote so many of these wonderful books because my nine year old son just loves them. All of the Horrible History series books make him laugh and my son learns so much about history. He probably knows more about history than I do now. We highly recommend them.. Ira said very good. The horrors of WW I described in a humorous way. I wonder why we don't use such books at school?
With a bold, accessible new look, these bestselling titles are sure to be a huge hit with yet another generation of Terry Deary fans. Readers can discover all the foul facts about the FRIGHTFUL FIRST WORLD WAR, including what the 'Fat King' did with food scraps and dead horses, how sniffing your own pee could save your life in a gas attack and why a pair of old socks gave away top German secrets. 2013 is HORRIBLE HISTORIES twentieth anniversary.. Revised by the author to make Horrible Histories more accessible to young readers
