I love bottom humour that's suitable for children of all ages.
I love reading it.
I love hearing it.
I love sharing it.
I love collecting it.
So I've decided it's time to share my personal bottom humour picture book collection that tackles farts, underpants, poo and pee in a very special way. I've read all these books with my children and they've made us laugh for hours. I know it's not for everyone and that's ok.
Feel free to let me know of other amazing children's
picture books I can add to my collection.
