The Gas We Pass

The Gas We Pass: The Story of Farts written by Shinta Cho.

I heard about the author Shinta Cho before and the variety of other children's literature that was written. So....when I saw this book on Amazon.com I knew what I had to do. I bought it immediately. A few days latter it arrived in the mail and my son and I tore open the package (it was not gift wrapped). The cover alone sent the two of us in hysterics. It took about five minutes before the water left our eyes so we could focus on the words on each page. A civilized individual could read this simple book in about three minutes. However, when you give a book about farts to a father and a son it will take a lot longer than three minutes. In fact, it took my son and I about 25 minutes to read this book. We laughed at, ogled over, gawked at, and mimicked each page several times before turning to the next. Talk about male bonding. My wife, my son's mother, was not pleased with our immature actions as well as my role model behavior. Hey, I was reading to my son and he was reading to me. Come to think about it, I don't ever recall reading being so fun!

Since the reading of this book, we have come across a number of others covering the same topic. However, my wife found one at the Thrift Store for fifty cents. The book is entitled, The Day My Butt Went Psycho. If my wife bought it for us to read, it must be good. Can't wait to read the book and then write about it. ")
