Two Charles Reichblum titles in the "Strange & fascinating Facts" series will appeal to a wide audience from teens through adult readers, gathering unusual facts and history to appeal to trivial and cultural history buffs. Dr. Knowledge Presents: Strange & Fascinating Facts About Famous Brands (1579123562, $9.95) tells of some of the most famous products and services in modern times, from company histories to logo development and promotions of use. Learn about the lowly janitor whose cousin Hoover helped patent and manufacture one of his most inventive devices, and the evolution of the Health Kup to the more attractive Dixie Cup. Dr. Knowledge Presents: Strange & Fascinating Facts About The Presidents (1579123570, $9.95) uses the same format to provide little-known insights about American Presidents. Both make for fun leisure choices.
