The Meatshower by Mick Sullivan
ABOUT THE BOOK
The Meatshower is a children’s book by author Mick Sullivan that tells the true story of the day meat fell from the sky on March 3, 1876 in Bath County, Kentucky. (Really, it happened.) The story is told by a piece of the very old meat who now sits in a lonely jar on a museum shelf. He reflects on his humble beginnings and speculates about all the possibilities of how he came to be. Just how and why did chunks of meat rain from the sky 150 years ago? The Meatshower by Mick Sullivan has all the answers.
We promise this will be the weirdest, craziest, and meatiest book you’ll read with your kids this year. It’s just one of the bizarre stories Mick covers on his award-winning children’s podcast, The Past and The Curious, which covers bizarre phenomenon from throughout the insane history of the world.

drawings are a combination of vibrant color and intricate line work that reference his love for
comic art. Drawing has always been an important aspect of Shae’s life. Beginning at a young age he and his older brother, Corey, would challenge each other to drawing contests in which they copied panels from an array of second-hand graphic novels from the previous decade
(McFarlane’s Spiderman, Bolland’s Batman, Miller’s X-men. You know, “the good stuff”). In this bout of sibling rivalry a passion for visual storytelling was born.
