Publisher's Synopsis
Pssst! It's true! This is the best book on poisons you'll ever read. Did you realise that you take poison at least once a day? There's cyanide in apple pips and harm in herbs, not to mention food preservatives, art supplies, fabric dyes and treatments once used for skin care and headlice. In this book, you read about toxic wallpaper that killed even bedbugs; find out why Bath buns were bad for bun buyers and how poison might cure cancer; and bone up on murder mysteries, including the one about glow-in-the-dark soup. Treat your friends to toxic tales and poisonous plots!
