Farts: A Spotter's Guide: (Fart Books, Fart Jokes, Fart Games Book)

I bought this and "What's Your Poo Telling You?" "Farts: A Spotter's Guide" is strictly for giggles, and boy, do I! There are just a few thick cardboard pages. What really matters here are not the words. It's the buttons! Ten different fart sound effect buttons - it's like I went to Humor Heaven!

Even my husband, who is far less enthusiastic about fart humor gets a kick out of this book. We keep it within easy reach so we can press a fart at will to break the silence or make a point.

I've already gifted a copy of this book, and I'll probably buy more for gifts for my family and friends. By golly, if this book doesn't get a grin out of you, you don't have a pulse!

Have you ever stood in an elevator, when suddenly a foul odored roar ripped through the silence? If you wondered about the breed of fart you came in contact with, this book may be for you.

A book like "Farts: A Spotter's Guide" is a rare find to say the least. This hardcover illustrated book includes detailed information on ten common fart breeds. Given two side by side pages, each breed's section contains the common and scientific name, an illustration, field marks, voice, habitat, range, finally a description. To some, this information may be enough, but this book also provides high quality recordings of each breed as well.

After studying this book, you'll impress all your friends with your ability to identify farts on the fly. However, it's not as impressive to refer to them as a number 2 and such. In this example it may be confusing, but for those who have yet to study this book, the numbers wouldn't mean much. Using the scientific name would probably come off as pretentious, it's best to use the common name around your unlearned friends.

If you are looking for a comprehensive book on farts, or are looking for a fun and informative gift for a friend, this book is sure to be enjoyed. The information is accurate, and provides laughter and amusement to an otherwise smelly subject.

PROS:
Hardcover
Includes audio recordings
Provides laughter and amusement

CONS:
Only provides detailed information on 10 common breeds

Farts: A Spotter's Guide is an absolutely delightful book that will put a smile on your face. (If not, you're an old fart!) You see, it has these little blue buttons numbered from one to ten, and when you depress them, they simulate different kinds of flatulence. I sent it to a friend who was nervous about having surgery and he laughed all the way to the operating room. When he got home, he farted, and his wife said, "What was that?" "Number 6," he replied. Buy lots of copies and send them to your friends.

I bought this as a gift for a seven year old and upon getting the book the sounds did not work. When I got the batteries out, I could see that two were corroded. After getting replacement batteries (for 8 dollars) the sound box worked fine. I would probably opt to get the book in person next time.

Love the book, but the batteries were dead when it arrived. They're those small button batteries which ended up costing us $10.

If you think this book is only for the immature or silly, think again. The "research" is well articulated and, on face value, valid. As a doctoral candidate, I loved this book, not only for the humor, but for the prose. Well written, funny and highly recommended.

Funny book - waiting for scratch and sniff version!

Great joke gift
