🌟 Recommendation Details

This story happened in 1920 and is a true story. Josephine in the book always cuts her hands in the kitchen. Her husband Earle invented Band-Aids with tape and gauze to help her! There are many funny parts in the book. "THE END" will suddenly pop up in the book, but the next page will shout "I'm kidding! The story is not over yet! Josephine's unlucky daily life: "Cut fingers when cutting onions, scratch skin when rubbing cheese, and burn hands when carrying hot pots!" (There are also onomatopoeias such as "OUCH!" and "BOO-HOO!") The last few pages teach you "how to invent things" observe the problem try it don't give up! I also learned that Band-Aids were originally given to Boy Scouts for free! Recommendation reason: If you like "funny and true stories", then I must recommend it to you! !
