This was HILARIOUS! The rhymes make you crackle with laughter. Fart jokes and fart rhymes. Runners, divers, royalty, travellers, robbers —all either farting or affected by farts. Would recommend the book for kids. They would be rolling in laughter. I can imagine them reading the rhyming lines again and again. And the illustrations are amazing too.

Note to parents : nothing crass or vulgur. Some might be worried with the title of the book. This picture book is simply pure fun and humour.

Review to come February 2nd on my blog.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

I was quite curious about this book. Despite being 18+ I still always love books about subjects like farts, I guess I will never grow up. :P I was curious about what the secret life of a fart or farts would be. I like the the book cover has a whoopee cushion (or Lordie Cushions we have to believe Aunty Donna :P ).

In this book we read about different kind of farts and about why farts are so great. In this book wae see a fart from a cook who gets startled by a robber, but also a diver underwater who makes such a big fart bubble a fish gets stuck in it, or the classic farts in an elevator. And there are many more fun examples.Along the way we see the reactions of animals and people. I had such a big laugh about the different farts and to see how they wafted away out of the butts. But the biggest laugh definitely comes from the reactions of the animals/people.

I like that this was told in verse/rhyme as it made the book more silly and fun to read.

The art/illustrations was fun as well and I really liked the style. It was very colourful and the farts well drawn (like that they also form shapes).

All in all, this was a fun fartastic book about farts. Kids will love it (and adults like me).

The Secret Life of Farts was a fast paced funny, rhyming story about farts and their many adventures. My 8 year old found it very amusing and he had many laugh out loud moments. I believe it’s age appropriate and doesn’t use any inappropriate pictures or wording

'The Secret Life of Farts'- the title drew me in at once.
The book is extremely witty and written in a poetic manner. The illustrations are beautiful and a treat to the eye. Fun read, very cute and perfect for kids. Definitely gave me major Dr.Seuss vibes.

Well who would have thought a 37 year old adult would have laughed out loud about a book about farts! Well this one did!
A quick versed story which were told in rhyme which were actually done very well and weren't just added just because they rhymed which I find some books do.
Perfect book that I am sure will make many children smile - along with their mum's and dads too no doubt.

A witty and fun, very short book about farts written in short poet form supplemented with drawings. It’s a fast read that brightened my day, and gave me some laughs. My favourite thing is the wittiness in the jokey poems, but I wonder if children and youngsters will get all the nuisances in them. Maybe that’s the thing, everyone understands them in their own way. When you need to take a break from reality, you need some laughs, but you’re short of time, read this book!
