Andrew Lost #13: In the Garbage

Andrew, Judy, and Thudd have time-traveled out of an ice age only to find themselves shrunk down and tossed out with the garbage! As they get up close and personal with half-eaten hog dogs, soggy pasta, and old fruit rinds, they’ll learn about the stinky—but oh-so-necessary!—process of decomposition. Kids, parents, and teachers love this series—kids for all its gooey grossness, and teachers and parents for all the fun science and great discussion points!“Andrew Lost books are gross and disgusting. That’s why we like them.”
