Body Myths Busted

  • Body knowledge: the most absurd body myths revealed in a humorous and informative way
  • Perfect show-off knowledge and plenty of surprises for children and parents


"Eating spinach will make you strong!” or “You’ll get square eyes from watching TV!” Who hasn’t heard the absurd sayings that adults throw out when they want to get their children to do something or stop them from doing something? These sometimes hair-raising myths persist from generation to generation.
This amusing non-fiction book takes a close look at this “wisdom” - with a wink, but well-founded and informative.
