Everyone Poops by Taro
Gomi is part biology textbook, part sociological treatise and all
celebration of a very natural process. Both my daughters begged me to read
the book over and over again.
They marveled at the enormity of the
elephant's poop and searched with the skill of a scientist for the tiny
specks which represent bug poop.
The text is simple and straightforward
but not without humor. 'An elephant makes a big poop,' the book
begins. 'A mouse makes a tiny poop. A one-hump camel makes a one-hump
poop, And a two-hump camel makes a two-hump poop. Only kidding!'
The
colorful illustrations are eye-catching and deceptively detailed. The poop
of each animal species is very distinctive in size, shape and color…A book
which doesn't have any preachy overtones but merely explains where and how
each living creature poops seems to work for my two-year-old.
In fact,
it's number one on the bathroom reading list at our house." - The
Expositor
