Overview

Burt the Turd's story begins at birth, surrounded by nurses in a hospital toilet. Follow Burt as he grows up and moves through every grade of school learning, dreaming, and discovering what he wants to be when he grows up: a real weatherman. Along the way, Burt shares how he learns about the weather on the school playground and even while riding his bike. This playful and encouraging story is designed to support potty training while teaching children about the weather. From fog, wind, rain, and snow to tornadoes and thunderstorms, kids learn what is happening outside and how to feel calm and confident when the weather turns scary. Every page includes a simple question that invites children to think, talk, and share their ideas. This book is perfect for read-aloud time to encourage conversation, build language skills, and create meaningful moments together. Funny, reassuring, and relatable, Burt the Turd shows children that growing up happens one step at a time and that big dreams can start in the smallest places.
