Publisher Description
A hilariously informative book of facts, farts, and fun!
Dogs fart. Cats fart. Horses fart (a lot). But what about snakes? Spiders? Octopuses? What about chimpanzees? Cheetahs? Or dinosaurs?
In this gaseous guide to kids' favorite animals (and some they've probably never heard of), young readers will discover not only which animals pass gas, but also which have the stinkiest farts, which fart the most, and where all this smelly stuff comes from. They'll even learn which species has its own secret fart code! Perfect for reluctant readers, and with full-color illustrations throughout, Does It Fart? is the funniest book you never knew you needed.
Based on the New York Times bestseller Does It Fart?: The Definitive Field Guide to Animal Flatulence.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Do horses fart? What about unicorns, parrots, and spiders? Caruso and Rabaiotti attempt to answer in this laugh-out-loud spin on their adult title of the same name. Describing the science behind passing gas, the book explores flatulence in 19 different species (in existence and otherwise), presenting each animal and then asking "Does it fart?" Most often the answer is "yes," and the book is full of outrageous examples: the secret fart codes used by herrings, beaded lacewing babies' deadly toots, whales' enormous stinkers, and the perfectly ubiquitous gas of human kids. Minimal pen, ink, and digital cartoons by Griffiths emphasize the innate humor of the subject and pair well with Caruso and Rabaiotti's silly but science-filled text. Sure, farts are funny, but they're also a normal part of living (and eating). Ages 4 8.
