Publisher Description: Let's face it: no one really looks forward to going to see the dentist. But have you considered the alternative?This series takes readers (Ages 8-12) on a historical journey, examining how people coped in the past and how they developed ingenious ways to make life safer and less unpleasant. Each book features full-color cartoon-style illustrations and hilarious speech bubbles to heighten interest, making the series attractive even to reluctant readers.In past centuries, the only cure for a decayed tooth was to pull it out-without anesthetic, and with only the beating of a drum to distract you and drown out your screams. |
