Truth or Busted

Truth or Busted’s History title explores popular myths and legends about world history in a light and humorous way that kids will find unputdownable. Such statements as ‘George Washington had wooden teeth’ or ‘Thomas Crapper invented the flushing toilet’ are examined as well as where the ideas came, whether they have any basis in truth, or whether they can be consigned to folklore. Each statement is given a TRUTH or BUSTED evaluation.
