How They Croaked: The Awful Ends of the Awfully Famous by Georgia Bragg

How They Croaked: The Awful Ends of the Awfully Famous by Georgia Bragg - 184 pages

This children's book tells of the "truly disgusting endings" of several famous historical figures including King Tut, Cleopatra, Pocahontas, George Washington, Ludwig van Beethoven, Marie Curie and many more.  It also gave several interesting tidbits of information about death in general.  While several of the descriptions were gruesome, it was still fascinating to read.  A great book for pre-teen and teen boys.
