The great stink : how Joseph Bazalgette solved London's poop pollution problem / Colleen Paeff ; illustrated by Nancy Carpenter.
"In the summer of 1858, London's River Thames STANK. What created such a revolting smell? No matter what you call it, the answer is gross: the river was full of poop."-- back cover
"This funny and informative picture book tells the story of Joseph Bazalgette, a 19th century engineer who designed London's first comprehensive sewage system. In doing so, he saved thousands of lives from cholera outbreaks that regularly plagued the city. This STEM-focused story provides a window into the past and shows how one invention went on to affect generations to come - and teaches kids how they can prevent pollution in their own neighborhoods today"-- Provided by publisher.
