This Book Stinks!


Overview

All the kids at Alpine Elementary School love the Fart Face book series, and Drita is their newest fan. She and her fellow library helper, Josh, even start the Fart Face Fan Club. But when parents get a whiff of the books' ""toilet talk,"" they wonder if the books are appropriate for their children. In response, the school decides to take the Fart Face books off the library shelves. Drita and Josh know this isn't fair, so they resolve to save their favorite series. Drita hatches a plan to prove that the Fart Face books offer more than just fart jokes--they encourage scientific learning and a love of reading.

""Humorously approaches the topic of book banning. Presents kid characters stepping up and taking charge as they exercise their agency and right to protest in an affirming novel that recalls the charm of Captain Underpants."" -- ""Publishers Weekly""
