Synopsis
It wasn't too long ago that people tried all sorts of things to help sick people feel better. They tried wild things like drinking a glass full of millipedes or putting some mustard on one's head. Some of the cures worked, and some of them...well, let's just say that millipedes, living or dead, are not meant to be ingested.
Carlyn Beccia takes readers on a colorful and funny medical mystery tour to discover that while times may have changed, many of today's most reliable cure-alls have their roots in some very peculiar practices, and so relevant connections can be drawn from what they did then to what we do now.

About the Author
The very talented author-illustrator, Carlyn Beccia, came upon the idea for this book after years of trying to convince friends and family that garlic wards off colds. So far, Ms. Beccia has had seven dislocated shoulders and one broken bone but has fortunately never needed leech therapy. She lives in Lynnfield, Massachusetts with her family. www.carlynbeccia.com
