You learn about the rats, fleas, and how the waste was disposed of (bare rear hanging over a cliff, anyone?). It's just the right level of funny grossness that most pre-teens would find captivating (in that weird way that they enjoy being disgusting). It's light-hearted and has a lot of good facts, cartoonish, yet de-romanticizes the Dark Ages by bringing out the real unsanitary living conditions. Good book!
My grandson will love this. Arrived on time and just what I expected.
