A Brief History of Underpants

This punny title explores the history of undergarments with zany facts and illustrations, marketed to children ages 4 to 8. Through history and with humor, this book explores the evolution of underwear, notably even on the cover with an interactive turn wheel showcasing illustrations of this evolution. Here the reader’s questions and curiosities will be addressed — such as how humans dealt with underwear before the implementation of elastane. What ruler was sent off with over 100 pairs for the afterlife? Why were feathers a choice material for some people? Addressing curiosities like this, this book goes back hundreds of years to discover more about this piece of clothing.
