520    "After wading into the grossest animal pee, poop, and 
       vomit humans have consumed in Dung for Dinner, Christine 
       dives back into the muck with an equally humorous and 
       informative exploration of the most revolting jobs 
       throughout history. From the ancient Egyptian mummy makers
       who removed brains by shoving iron hooks up peoples' noses,
       to the 19th century Toshers who hunted for treasure deep 
       in the London sewers, to modern day forensic entomologists
       who study the fly eggs, maggots, and other creepy crawlies
       that live on-and crawl through-human corpses, we'll learn 
       about jobs that deal with poop, pee, blood, medicine, and 
       dead bodies. Combining history, science, and a slew of 
       fascinating facts, it's middle grade nonfiction with real 
       kid appeal"--|cProvided by publisher.
