"Who would have thought the kids smelling my fart would help me make the hockey team?"

I tried to read this with my 11-year-old son, however, he "only reads adult books' now. You know, big kid books.

So I read this by myself. (Let it be said, he's not the target market for this book - I would say it's probably 5-7 years, were I to guess).

It took me a page or two to understand the premise of the book. I thought, perhaps, the Little Fart was a cutesy name for a little monster or something. Nope, I'm thinking too much, it's really just a personified fart that happens to be Timmy's best friend.

The book was light and fluffy, told from Timmy's viewpoint. Think of this book as the kids version of the story adults tell about imagining everyone naked during a speaking presentation, to make yourself less nervous.

All in all, a fun book.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for giving me early access to this book for review purposes.… (more)
