Mouse wakes up one morning and notices a distinct poo odor wafting into his home. He sets out to find who would dare to poo right outside his house. He asks many forest animals who all describe how their poo differs from the poo left at Mouse’s house. In the end, the culprit is discovered, and what the animals do with the poo just may surprise you.

This is an informative and funny book that young readers will love — who doesn’t love a poop book? The rhyming text adds to the story and makes for an easy and fun read aloud. The digitally rendered illustrations convey humor, emotion, and poo. Recommended as a read aloud for all kids 3 and older.
