Description

"History has never been this contagious!"

Before soap saved the day, things got really gross.

Plagues. Pus. Pandemics. From the Black Death to COVID-19, Wash Your Hands dives into the nastiest, weirdest, and most unbelievable disease stories in history -- all told with a splash of humor and a big dose of "eww!"
Meet kings with leprosy, cooks who spread typhoid, and doctors who thought bad smells caused sickness. Middle-grade and young teens will laugh, cringe, and maybe even appreciate hand sanitizer a little more.

Roll up your sleeves and get ready for:
? Fun (and freaky) facts that'll make your skin crawl
? Outrageous "cures" people actually believed worked
? Real heroes who battled germs before science caught up

Because history's grossest moments might just be its most important -- and you'll never look at handwashing the same way again.
