The book that comes to mind that would be perfect is:
Reeking Royals (Smelly Old History)
by Mary J. Dobson, Vince Reid (Illustrator). Oxford did it.

Another is: her volume--
Tudor Odours (Smelly Old History, Scratch N
 Sniff Your Way Through the Past)
 by Mary J. Dobson, Vince Reid, Martin J. Cottam

or Medieval Muck (Smelly Old History)
by Mary J. Dobson, Vince Reid (Illustrator)

There's also:
The Measly Middle Ages  by Terry Deary, Martin C. Brown (Illustrator)
which I haven't seen.

Kids this age tend to love this sort of item. Ask if the school or local
public library has them.
------------
Otherwise true facts about drawing and quartering tend to be gruesome
enough to do the trick.
