A Day in the Life of a Poo, a Gnu and You

It might seem goofy to rate a children's book about animal life cycles and poop 5 stars, but 5 stars is all Goodreads gives me to work with, so there you go. I am rating this on how much my children have enjoyed this book, which is to say: a tremendous amount.

We have checked this out from the library 3 separate times.

I have one son who is an avid reader and one son who is a somewhat reluctant reader. They have both asked for this book to be re-checked out (somewhat unheard of). On the second time we checked it out, my reluctant reader son said, “Can we re-read some of the Secret Diary pages again?” I didn't even remember that the book was divided up that way, but there you go. It really made an impression on him.

The illustrations in this are so cute. I'd really recommend it if you have kids interested in life sciences and nature. But who knows, you might capture some unexpected attention just because of how irreverent and fun it is.
