Nothing makes a kid laugh more than farts and poop. The Honorable Fart Master McFigglebutts gets his name naturally. Yep, he farts – a lot! He farted every fart there was to fart until his friends and family set him apart. Everybody makes them, but it’s kinda rude to fart in the supermart. McFigglebutts has a girlfriend: Juicy Toots. They both are going to learn some fart etiquette as they learn what foods make them especially tooty (salmon is the worst, but black beans make kazoo farts) and how to get “a smell of their own”. The authors had much help from their six- and ten-year old kids.
Said The Fart Master: Farts are funny…except when they’re brown.”
