How They Croaked

How They Croaked By Diniti Remember the day where 5B conjured up monsters in art class? Guess what we’re doing in literature? Reading about death, specifically “How they croaked” by Georgia Bragg. “THE AWFUL ENDS OF THE AWFULLY FAMOUS” Hmm…… 5B seems to have a hidden interest for the dark… Mrs.Barnes, a cheerful teacher, will go dark and mad by trying to controlling this frenzy for the book. If there was a museum in 5B, these 7 treasured copies would be in it (along with our monsters and a few autopsy parts.) This book includes: the death of Cleopatra, how George Washington croaked, and gruesome passing of Ludwig van Beethoven. Parents, want an excerpt? Here’s one: “Whether someone had a lung explode or was stabbed to death, died of poison or a sore throat, there’s always someone to blame, fingers to point. Looking back from where we sit now, people a long time ago sure did some dumb stuff-and it’s definitely the kind of stuff worth writing about.” I sure liked the part about lungs exploding! This revolting, brain-twisting, book that makes you want to vomit shall never be forgotten. Those people who have no fear, take a hike. Happy endings people, you get read this book in another millennium. Note: Archery is coming up in P.E.; who- I mean what do you think will be the target?

  2. The most gruesome, disgusting, and gross was Beethoven. It was my favorite.
    It was just so repellent, repulsive, abhorrent, loathsome, and nauseating.
