How They Croaked

A creative twist on how many famous people met their awful fate with many interesting facts about each person. 

Organization: The novel has a table of contents where you are able to pick and choose what person you’d like to read about.

Design, Accuracy, & Style: The design of the novel is very morbid, adding to the theme of the dead famous people theme. The entire novel is in black and white including the birth and death dates that are added inside a tombstone. There are also illustrations assisting in explaining certain processes, for example pulling out King Tut’s brains. There are also pages with facts such as what they do to mummies.
