This is a little story about a boy visiting his grandmother in Ankh-Morpork and developing a keen interest in all kinds of poo.

It's a short book and there's not much to it, so perhaps only Pratchett completists will want to rush out and buy a copy. However, if you happen to come across it lying around, as I did, it makes quite pleasant reading to pass a short while. Faced with the challenge of writing a book with this title, Pratchett shaped up and made something better than you might expect of it.

It could probably teach you a few things you didn't know about poo, too.

Although the story is set on the Discworld, it doesn't really require previous knowledge of the Discworld, and the level of fantasy in it is relatively low.
