  DEXTER'S LABORATORY 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  Dexter's Laboratory is an American animated series created by Genndy Tartakovsky, that first aired in 1996. The show centers on Dexter, a boy-genius with a secret laboratory, and his older sister Dee Dee, who often disrupts his experiments. The series also features Dexter's rival Mandark, and recurring segments like Dial M for Monkey and The Justice Friends. The show's humor comes from the sibling rivalry and Dexter’s ambitious, yet often flawed, scientific endeavors. Dexter’s Laboratory was a significant hit for Cartoon Network and won multiple awards. The series is known for its unique style, influenced by UPA shorts, Merrie Melodies, and anime. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  Dexter's Laboratory was created by Genndy Tartakovsky for Cartoon Network and it follows the adventures of Dexter, a boy genius with a secret laboratory hidden in his bedroom. The series was the first original series for the channel under the "Cartoon Cartoons" moniker.  
    
  The show features Dexter's ongoing conflict with his older sister Dee Dee, who frequently disrupts his experiments, and Mandark, a rival genius who seeks to undermine Dexter's work. Despite being a genius, Dexter often fails due to his overexcitement and carelessness.  
    
  The series was initially based on student films that Tartakovsky produced at the California Institute of the Arts. Four pilot episodes aired on Cartoon Network and TNT from 1995 to 1996 before the show was picked up as a series.

  This fun, engrossing book takes a look at the surprising influence that gardens and gardening have had on mystery novels and their authors. With their deadly plants, razor-sharp shears, shady corners, and ready-made burial sites, gardens make an ideal scene for the perfect murder. But the outsize influence that gardens and gardening have had on the mystery genre has been underappreciated. Now, Marta McDowell, a writer and gardener with a near-encyclopedic knowledge of the genre, illuminates the many ways in which our greatest mystery writers, from Edgar Allen Poe to authors on today’s bestseller lists, have found inspiration in the sinister side of gardens. From the cozy to the hardboiled, the literary to the pulp, and the classic to the contemporary, Gardening Can Be Murder is the first book to explore the mystery genre’s many surprising horticultural connections. Meet plant-obsessed detectives and spooky groundskeeper suspects, witness toxic teas served in foul play, and tour the gardens—both real and imagined—that have been the settings for fiction’s ghastliest misdeeds. A New York Times bestselling author herself, McDowell also introduces us to some of today’s top writers who consider gardening integral to their craft, assuring that horticultural themes will remain a staple of the genre for countless twisting plots to come.    “This book is dangerous. A veritable cornucopia of crime fiction and gardening lore, it faces the reader with multiple temptations—books to seek out, plants to obtain, garden tours to book.” —Vicki Lane, author of the Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries

  We can all agree—birds are terrible. They're stupid and won't shut up. 
   
   
   
  Featuring fifty of the absolute worst birds to fly the earth, Kracht identifies each of their most terrible qualities, details exactly why they suck, and shows you why. Including all-new, all-worst fowl, such as: the absolute waste of feathers Cruddy Turdstone (Ruddy Turnstone), the utter a-hole Blank Staring-Eyes Flycrapper (Black Paradise Flycatcher), the outright loser Dowdy Woodfucker (Downy Woodpecker), and many more! 
   
   
   
  Even the author's previous bird takedown guides are no preparation for this hilariously harrowing collection of squawking, conceited, trash-eating, and even murderous idiots. The horror. The horror . . . 
   
   
   
  LOVE BIRDS? HATE BIRDS?: For those who hate birds and for bird lovers everywhere with a sense of humor, this handbook is equal parts profane and funny, and—let's face it—true. 
   
   
   
  ENTERTAINING AND EDUCATIONAL: This uproarious guide to all things wings includes tips for bird identification, musings on the avian population and classification, and more. Plus, each entry is accompanied by facts about a bird's (annoying) call, its (dumb) migratory pattern, its (downright tacky) markings, and more.
