Book Synopsis

Perfect for kids who love odd facts and disgusting things, Weird and Gross Bible Stuff contains all the strange, sometimes funny, downright bizarre, and yes, gross things throughout the Bible in one handy book. From facts about the crazy animals (unicorn goat, anyone?) to the cringe-worthy cleanup of the ten plagues and information on the unusual lives and deaths of many biblical characters, readers will not only find tons of interesting, factual knowledge, they'll learn more about what the Bible contains ... and what it has to offer.

Cannibal cows, swamp dragons, demonic pigs ... kids might be shocked to learn these things are actually in the Bible. And in Weird and Gross Bible Stuff, they can explore these and other peculiar and shocking facts and stories. Each chapter is organized by a theme--like "Amazing and Weird" or "Bizarre Healings"--and is packed full of snippets and information that appeals to kids who love odd facts and "gross" things while also providing biblically accurate facts that help readers better understand and appreciate the Bible. And also helps them become smarter as they apply that knowledge to their own overall reading of God's Word.
