Your Disgusting Head : The Darkest, Most Offensive and Moist Secrets of Your Ears, Mouth and Nose (How Books: Haggis-On-Whey World of Unbelievable Brillance)

Rating:
Summary: A collation of remarkable facts
Review: A gorgeously illustrated book. Many pages are suitable for color xeroxing and framing. If you have a stack of old National Geographics or social studies textbooks that you're keeping around for the pictures, this book will make your stack neatly obsolete.

Dr. H.-O.-W. has a breezy, wry writing style that makes the sometimes-startling science within go down very smoothly indeed. Anyone with a head must -- nay, MUST -- read this book, at least parts of it. Highlights include knitting a tongue cozy; aminals of Madagascar; significant stories and charts; games and educational fun; and other highlights.

There is a dangerously widening gulf between those who have read this book and those who haven't, and reading it is the only way to truly know which side you want to be on.

Summary: Great, Funny Book
Review: I am wrapping gifts for my grandchildren. I purchased this book and Giraffes, Giraffes for two sets of them. I laughed out loud at the clever and so very funny text. I don't want to part with them but will make sure I check them out every time I visit with the grandkids.

Summary: whoa.
Review: i had no idea that my head was so disgusting. after reading this book, i've decided that i'm only keeping my head around until i find a suitable cover for the top of my neck, something not unlike a chimney topper that makes it nearly impossible for squirrels to crawl down and die (the chimney, not my neck).

ten pages into this book, i bought a few as presents. you're welcome, present-recipients. highly recommended and quite enlightening. you'll like.

Summary: Finally, an explanation for the human ear (and more).
Review: Why are ears so freakish and weird, even more alien than the roofs of our mouths or the gnarled depths of our bellybuttons? If you think all that showy cauliflowery serves a purpose, you're wrong. Thanks to the exhaustive research of Dr. Doris Haggis-on-Whey (and her eversmiling sidekick, Benny), we now know who to blame: Fernando de la Mancini-Goldfarb, the infamous procrastinator and inventor who designed the ear in a rush of poor-planning one night in 1911. It all makes sense now, no?

"Your Disgusting Head" is packed with similarly illuminating facts, drawings, and diagrams, each specially designed to edify and entertain -- the perfect panacea for all the gift-buying challenges in your life, from the littlest child to the tallest adult.
