I love the sort of books that just have short entries on all sorts of topics, which means, I quite enjoyed Hidden Histories: Historical Figures: 100 Wild Stories You Never Learned in History Class, by Tim Rayborn. (My mom taught history, and she would have included material like this)! Chapters include Writers, Musicians, Actors, Scientists, and more. Dr. Seuss had a lot of hats. How much of Van Gogh's ear was actually missing? What did Lucille Ball have to do with (the original) Star Trek? Fun! I'm thinking Tall Reader needs to share it with the grands when next they visit. (They enjoyed it, too). :-)
