Abby picked this book to get at the book fair last night. Kind of similar to Paradox Press's Big Book of Death for a younger audience. Suitably gross and funny. We read the King Tut entry last night.

    No, but that is weird. 

    Slow and horrible deaths or weird things happening to bodies after death are mostly what's included. Like Marie Curie, or Einstein's brain being stolen.
