With universal appeal (everyone poops, after all), this witty, illustrated description of over two dozen dookies (each with a medical explanation written by a doctor) details what one can learn about health and well-being by studying what's in the bowl. A floater? It's probably due to a buildup of gas. Now think back on last night's dinner, a burrito perhaps? . . .All the greatest hits are here: The Log Jam, The Glass Shard, The Deja Poo, The Hanging Chad . . . the list goes on. Sidebars, trivia, over 60 euphemisms for number 2, and unusual case histories all make this the ultimate bathroom reader. Who knew you could learn so much from your poo?

I just finished reading this book cover to cover. The only time I set it down was to wipe away the tears from side-splitting laughter. The chapter on "sneak attack" poos and the "hanging chad" poos made me burst into laughter so hard that several of my work colleagues came by to see what was going on. The book combines great advice, accurate descriptions and solid medical medical reasoning for each type of poo. No longer will I wonder why my poo is the way it is. Great, fun book and perfect for a quick bathroom read.

This book is hysterical, yet educational too! I got it for my 10 year old son for his birthday. Bathroom humor is always a hit with boys. He read the book aloud during a road trip and we were all in stitches, laughing. It's sooo funny and you do learn a thing or two about #2!

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who thinks poo is funny. But this book is SO HILARIOUS that everyone who sees it can't stop talking about poo. It's fantastic! I also learned a lot about poo because of the excellent commentary by the M.D. I bet that the author Josh Richman was in some kind of weird fraternity hazing ritual to think this much about poo--even though I'm no frat boy I think everyone will love this book!!!

Funny and interesting
This is a nice funny book you can read in 30min. I fond myself focusing on the actual explanations rather than the humorous parts...But that's me..

more humor than anything
while this book tries to add a few educational facts, its mostly humor. however, the humor isn't that humorous. i'm a little disappointed.

Hilarious and informative
This and its partner title (What's My Pee Telling Me?) are great bathroom reads. The names they give are great and the medical information is quite useful.
