SANDWICHES came about when an English earl was too busy gambling to eat his meal and needed to keep one hand free. POTATO CHIPS were first cooked by a chef who was furious when a customer complained that his fried potatoes weren't thin enough. Coca-Cola, Silly Putty, and X rays have fascinating stories behind them too! Their unusual tales, and many more, along with hilarious cartoons and weird, amazing facts, make up this fun-filled book about everyday items that had surprisingly haphazard beginnings."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Lanai P/S Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 609 Jo Checked out 05/18/2024 Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
