Dive into the most mysterious waters around the world (if you dare) in Spooky Lakes , a must-listen nonfiction book…
from TikTok star and educator Geo Rutherford Some of Earth's strangest-and creepiest-wonders lie deep below the surface. There's Lake Natron, a Tanzanian lake so briny that its waters can mummify any creature that touches its surface; Lake Maracaibo, a Venezuelan tidal bay where a constantly brewing storm sends an average of twenty-eight lightning bolts per second into the water; and at the bottom of Lake Superior, the crew of the USS Kamloops -which mysteriously disappeared in 1921-remains somehow almost perfectly preserved to this day. From Geo Rutherford-the creator of the hit series Spooky Lake Month (over sixty-five million likes!)-comes this thrilling nonfiction book that plumbs the depths of twenty-five unusual lakes around the world. Listeners will learn not only about the science of hydrology, but why understanding the natural world is crucial to protecting it from pollution and climate change. Backed by extensive research and packed with all-new content, Spooky Lakes takes listeners on an adventure through weird and wild waters

Listen along and enjoy the fun! Warning: Not for the faint-hearted. This revolting history of medicine through the ages by Jelena Poleksic is full of blood, guts, and gore!

In this hilarious history book kids will be whisked around the world-from ancient Rome to imperial China-to meet the medical innovators who pushed the boundaries of what was possible, with sometimes disastrous effects. They'll learn about the use of leeches, maggot-therapy (as gross as it sounds), dancing plagues, public dissections, grave robbers, electric eel treatments, exploding teeth, and much more! Written by a doctor, everything in this audiobook has been scrupulously researched and listeners will learn about the development of some of our greatest inventions, from vaccines to X-rays. Kids will want to return to this audiobook again and again. The vile sequel to the equally revolting A Stinky History of Toilets!

Whose five senses are superior: dogs or humans? In a showdown of the senses, who would come out as top…
dog: canines or humans? This junior nonfiction book for ages 6 to 9 creates a fierce but fun competition, comparing the ways dogs and humans perceive the world through each of the five senses: sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing. As dogs and humans are playfully pitted against each other, with one round for each sense, young readers will discover the scientific and evolutionary explanations behind our differences. It's a close race! Humans win for sight, with better depth perception, distance, and color vision. But dogs are stronger sniffers-with their noses, some can even locate people buried in an avalanche or detect an illness before a doctor has diagnosed it. With lively, cartoon-style illustrations, this book is an engaging and informative introduction to dog behavior that can help kids better understand and appreciate their canine companions
