What would you think if you were walking down the street and a bucket of poop was poured over your head?  What would you do if you had to kill the bugs in your oatmeal before you ate it?  How would you feel if you had bloodsucking worms put on your body to get rid of a fever?  Well, people in the past had to endure all of these things -- and more!  Do you think you could have lived that way?  In Ick! Yuck! Eew!: Our Gross American History by Lois Huey, you’ll learn what it was like to live in the not-so-distant past -- and it will maybe make you very grateful for the modern ways we have of doing things.  (Prepared by:  Susannah Hogan, Wellford Academy of Science and Technology,  South Carolina Children's Books Award Nominee, 2016)
