Description

Age range 9+ Live from the Crypt is an hilarious information series with an undead chat show format where ghostly historical figures are interviewed by the crew of the show about their lives and experiences, featuring quirky illustrations, comic strips and Q&A-style text. In this volume, Louis Pasteur discusses his ground-breaking work in developing the science of vaccination, and other important figures in the field, such as Edward Jenner and Alexander Fleming, are also interviewed about the frequently gross and gruesome experiments involved.
