Any kid would be amazed that this even exists,
By Toadspotter (KC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Farts: A Spotter's Guide (Hardcover)
Ahhh... Laughing at Farts- seems kiddish and maybe old hat, maybe something to be above... but alas its a form of entertainment everyone carries around. I bought this for my son's 6th birthday and he couldn't even believe it. It was definitely his favorite present. He was flippin out on the name 'Flight of the Buttocks Bees'- one of the farts described and sounded. He really got into it and started naming all issued farts now. I was glad to see he got the humor too- with a dude standing in an elevator smiling and everyone else cringing -loves showing people that image. The little sound device is freaking hilarious! Makes me think of the other types of books that have these... like Disney books where you can hear the fairies wand -but here you can hear a raunchy fart. Accidentally pushed a button in the store when I picked it up (buying it the first time) and got some funny looks from Urban Outfitters hotties across the store. I bought one online for my bro and his kids and they Loved it too (Great Gift). Really amazes kids- just put yourself in their shoes- I would have loved to have this when I was little- or even now as a coffee table book to make people laugh.
Word about the illustrator: Travis of Fudgefactory comics is an underground style illustrator/Artist who's done many a skateboard deck, and work with Burton Snowboards, Volcom, Sheppard Fairy (Obama Poster) and many zines, music albums and gallery shows- good chance to get introduced and/or pick up a bit of his work.

Fart Fun - With Sound Effects!,
By
This review is from: Farts: A Spotter's Guide (Hardcover)
I bought this and "What's Your Poo Telling You?" "Farts: A Spotter's Guide" is strictly for giggles, and boy, do I! There are just a few thick cardboard pages. What really matters here are not the words. It's the buttons! Ten different fart sound effect buttons - it's like I went to Humor Heaven!
Even my husband, who is far less enthusiastic about fart humor gets a kick out of this book. We keep it within easy reach so we can press a fart at will to break the silence or make a point. I've already gifted a copy of this book, and I'll probably buy more for gifts for my family and friends. By golly, if this book doesn't get a grin out of you, you don't have a pulse!

He Who Smelt It: A Farts: A Spotter's Guide Review,
This review is from: Farts: A Spotter's Guide (Hardcover)
Have you ever stood in an elevator, when suddenly a foul odored roar ripped through the silence? If you wondered about the breed of fart you came in contact with, this book may be for you.
A book like "Farts: A Spotter's Guide" is a rare find to say the least. This hardcover illustrated book includes detailed information on ten common fart breeds. Given two side by side pages, each breed's section contains the common and scientific name, an illustration, field marks, voice, habitat, range, finally a description. To some, this information may be enough, but this book also provides high quality recordings of each breed as well. After studying this book, you'll impress all your friends with your ability to identify farts on the fly. However, it's not as impressive to refer to them as a number 2 and such. In this example it may be confusing, but for those who have yet to study this book, the numbers wouldn't mean much. Using the scientific name would probably come off as pretentious, it's best to use the common name around your unlearned friends. If you are looking for a comprehensive book on farts, or are looking for a fun and informative gift for a friend, this book is sure to be enjoyed. The information is accurate, and provides laughter and amusement to an otherwise smelly subject. PROS: Hardcover Includes audio recordings Provides laughter and amusement CONS: Only provides detailed information on 10 common breeds
