Bart King in Toronto!

Humour + Kids / June 10, 2010
Earlier this week, author Bart King came to Toronto to talk about his latest book The Big Book of Gross Stuff!
The trip started at 6:30am (gross!) with a stop off at Breakfast TV in Dundas Square where Bart discussed eating squirmy mealworms — fried with breadcrumbs and olive oil (and uh, yeah, officially G.R.O.S.S.) — with host Dina Pugliese.
Dina was thrilled as you can see:
Bart also paid quick visits to the nice folks at Today's Parent, The Magazine, and The World's Biggest Bookstore before heading off for a hilarious chat about slime eels (ick!), underwear (yuk!), and leeches on eyeballs (vomit!), with Carlos on YTV's The Zone!
Come back soon Bart!
