I read a large portion of this book aloud to my coworker. I couldn't help it! It's full of such interesting facts about the mythological, religious, historic, & scientific pursuit of immortality. It's got everything from terra cotta warriors to cryogenics & back again. The illustrations killed me (or they would've if I hadn't discovered the secret to immortality inside). Perfect for your favorite tween (or for you, if you're remotely cool). 😎

Interesting book full of both myth and science!
