    Farts! What Every Young Boy Wants to Read About
    Format: Paperback
    My nephew was not into reading until we discovered this series of fart books. Now, he wants to read every night. As for the book itself, it's very humorous and carries a lesson about not growing up too fast.

    Must buy!
    Format: Paperback
    my daughter is obsessed with these books. They bring such a smile to her face and it’s such an easy gift for year round as there’s one for each holiday. We currently have the valentine’s day book and this one. We hope to buy her the Santa one for christmas. I highly recommend buying these! It’s silly but also teaches your children that it’s just a normal thing that happens to EVERY human and there’s nothing to be ashamed about.
