For more than 20 years, Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader has been bringing readers its own quirky brand of fascinating facts and trivia. But they have also been saving a secret stash of
stories just for girls. Girls will love this collection, from the story of the woman who invented the bulletproof vest to the teenager who led the French army to triumph. Read about the
reporter whose career started when she caught a U.S. president skinny-dipping, the Hungarian countess who killed for her beauty secrets. It’s all here humor and history, role models and
scandal, including teen millionaires ten kids who made their own fortune, the not-so-glamorous life of a fashion model, tales of intermarriage among the Royal Families, and tragic fashion,
from foot binding in China to neck ringing in Thailand. Topics also include what movie stars wear during "nude" scenes and other cinema secrets, plus fortune-telling tips through the ages,
how to make perfume, the unlikely origins of underwear, and much more.
