"Farty Pants" is a children's book that is fun for all ages. This was a silly book that also included some science and history, and the illustrations were bright and fun. I love finding books for my child that are both humorous and educational. Who knew you could learn something in a book about farting?!

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for the e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was a silly and funny book! It was also educational ; answering so many common questions from children. The illustrations were vivid and well done.

💨 What a fun book! Not only is it fun and informative, but there are real fart noises too! Sadly, I couldn’t hear the fart noises because I only had the ebook from NetGalley and couldn’t press the fart buttons, but I am so intrigued that I think I am going to buy a few copies of this for my grandkids. I know they will love it!

💨 The information in the book is really great! It is a perfect blend of science and humor with a dash of history thrown in for good measure. You’ll learn if astronauts can fart in space, how loud farts can be, how long a person can fart, what conditions make farts smell worse, and so much more. There is a lot of amazing fart knowledge in this book!

💨 The illustrations are silly and engaging (check out my slides to see a few pages)! You will see lots of gas coming out of backsides! Kids will love it.

💨 I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… books that are fun AND educational are the best! This is an automatic 5-stars from me!

Thank you @netgalley and Quarto Publishing Goup / becker & mayer kids for an eARC of this book, which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.

I am in the business of normalizing the human body in our home and this book is the perfect addition for our shelves! This book is FILLED with facts but makes it fun.

I wish we had the physical copy so we could listen to the fart sounds that are included, I know that would have kept my children's interest.

I have 3 young boys (and a husband who is a large child-at-heart) who LOVE fart humor. This book was both hilarious and educational. It made all of us giggle and we had to read it more than once immediately.

My daughters and I had high hopes for humor and learning when we saw the cover of Farty Pants. Unfortunately, it fell short in both. While there were a couple tidbits of trivia, it didn’t do enough to explain the science which was what my kids were most interested in. There were illustrations of monsters farting but other than that they didn’t tie into the text much. My six year olds were so excited and giggly about the book from the cover and at the end declared it boring. The fart noises may add humor that the eARC wasn’t able to provide. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the book. Unfortunately, this one didn’t work for us.

Who knew monster farts could be so educational. This was such a fun and funny learning book that we read together as a family, It had the kids laughing until they tooted.

This story was so fun! I would love reading this in my classroom! It's silly and educational. I even learned a bunch of things about farts I didn't know about!I The use of monsters as the characers was super fun too! I love how colorful they all were and how well the illustrations matched with the information that was being given on the page.

This was a very fun fart book for elementary school readers. Bold, colorful illustrations of monsters paired with facts on everything from composition to velocity to even the philosophy of farts. Pythagoras thought you could fart out your soul. Who knew!? Great mix of science and jokes. I wasn't able to find the Goodreads listing for this book, so leaving the review here for now. Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read early!

Funny, cute and very good information. I even learned a few things. My son is going into 2nd grade and enjoyed reading this. A few words mostly the names and scientific names he wasn't sure of, but we got through them! Loved the monsters and illustrations

Absolutely adored this book and I know it would be super popular with the young patrons! Will definitely recommend this for purchase for my library!

I found this book very educational for children. It teaches them that farting is natural and exactly what and why everyone farts.

I absolutely adored this fun, farty read! If I'm honest, the reasoning behind wanting to read & review this title is because...GAS HAPPENS...and the stigma around it astounds me. Yes, it's stinky and 'personal' but it IS NORMAL.
I really wanted to have some good one-liner comebacks or facts to dish out to my fiance the next time he complained that I had let one go (am I embarrassing myself right now? Most likely!).

I SO wish that I was able to press the buttons and hear the sounds accompanying the pages- HOW CHEEKY! This was another great book I didn't know I needed until Eric Geron decided to write this book into existence- you are the real MVP Eric!

Raunchy & goofy, Farty Pants is SURE to be a hit with any age range- not just delightful and full of laughs, but educational and relatable to boot!

Oh my goodness this book was so funny. It had facts about farts and funny little insights. I'm not sure it's one I'd want to share with kids because we prefer to keep our farts a little more private lol, but I can totally see some dads and grandpas picking it out!

Farts are a fact of life. Everyone farts. This book is a humorous look at the types and causes of farts in humans. Did you know the average person farts 14 times a day? Well I do now after reading this book. Kids will love the cute monster illustrations in this book and the fun and scientific facts about farts.

I saw this while scrolling through NetGalley, and though it wasn’t necessarily what I was looking for, I knew that my nieces and nephew would enjoy us reading it together. This was really fun for us to read on my iPad, and even though the sounds weren’t working for me, the information made us laugh and now we poke fun at each other with our new fart facts.
3.5/5 stars

An interesting read with a little one printed a few laughs but I don’t think it’s one we would want to read over and over again. The illustrations were great.

We all fart, why not enjoy (and celebrate!) the fart? FARTY PANTS is a cute, raunchy kid’s book about adorable, gassy monsters stinking up a storm. Mixed with facts, history and science, FARTY PANTS takes kids on a goofy journey to learn more about gas. I learned so many weird facts - such as the dude who created the Pythagorean Theorem thought that your soul left your body when you farted, or that the longest verified fart was almost three minutes long.
Which… how. Just. How.
How was that possible? What did he eat? What was going on in this guy’s guts? Who was there to verify that? Did they start the stopwatch as soon as he started??
So. Many. Questions. So few answers.

Thanks Netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for a review!
