burning questions about skivvies? seek no more.
Lloyd Kyi's 50 UNDERWEAR QUESTIONS (Annick Press 2011, courtesy of NetGalley) provides some answers to the questions of the origin of undergarments and how they developed over the centuries. Lots of humor in the writing and the illustrations will appeal to less than avid readers who are looking for something to browse.Direct kids to other books on the subject including HOW UNDERWEAR GOT UNDER THERE, THE REVEALING STORY OF UNDERWEAR, or books about Bloomer, Stanton, and others whose lives were altered due to changes in underwear. <662>
