Summary: This is one of the Funniest Books EVER!
Review: I'm 25 years old. I have a BA in Psychology. And I still think that this is the funniest book in the world. I picked it up in the bookstore and lost complete control after I read the first few pages and couldn't stop laughing out loud.
I work with 4th graders and I can't wait to bring this into the classroom. It's good to see a book that kids are going to love to read because it's so funny.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: it got my 10 year old reading again!
Review: my 10 year old absolutely loved this book. she was not much of a reader and this book has turned her on to reading again. she didn't want to put it down and walked around the house reading it when ever she could. she loved it and has shared it with a lot of her friends who also enjoyed reading it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Bathroom humor at it's finest
Review: My children (age 7 and 9) both read this book to themselves. They shared their laughter with the house however. I was also treated to passages read aloud. My son reads almost soley non-fiction science books. He doesn't read much fiction willingly, so I'm always on the look out for any that he will read. We've recommended this book to several children who like the Captain Underpants books, and they have all enjoyed it too. My son gives it 5 stars, but my more discriminating daughter gives it 4.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Recommended by book store for reluctant readers
Review: My son, 8, prefers to read chapter books with plenty of pictures. His favorite books are the Captain Underpants series. I went to a local children's bookstore today to find a book that would keep him entertained yet challenge his attention span. The subject matter is suitably silly and I'm hopeful that he'll stick with this book. So far, we've been laughing hysterically at the few pages we've read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A funny book for all ages
Review: OK. This book is GREAT. Sure, the humor's cheap and the word "butt" is used practically every page, but it's HILARIOUS! I recently finished this. I reccomend it to everyone.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: WORST BOOK EVER
Review: PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY AND DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. I READ THIS WITH MY DAUGHTERS AGES 8 AND 11. WE STOPPED ABOUT 3/4 INTO THE BOOK AFTER WE FINALLY CAME TO THE REALIZATION THAT IT WAS NOT GOING TO GET ANY BETTER OR WE WERE NEVER GOING TO LAUGH AT A SINGLE PAGE. I CANNOT BELIEVE THE 5 STAR RATINGS THAT OTHER CUSTOMERS ARE GIVING THIS BOOK. THEY MUST BE RELATED TO THE AUTHOR. I WAS NOT OFFENDED BY THE USE OF THE WORD BUTT OR THE OTHER POTTY HUMOR, IT JUST WASN'T FUNNY. THE WORD BUTT IS ON EACH PAGE SO MUCH THAT WE STARTED LEAVING IT OUT. IT WAS LIKE WE WERE READING A TONGUE TWISTER BOOK! ONE REVIEW SAID THAT THE WORD BUTT WAS IN THERE 10,000 TIMES. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY 100,000! YOU WILL TRULY BE SORRY YOU PURCHASED THIS BOOK. I WOULD LOVE TO GIVE MINE AWAY BUT DON'T WANT ANOTHER MOTHER OR FATHER TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE AGONY OF READING IT. IT WOULD POSSIBLY ONLY APPEAL TO A 3 OR 4 YEAR OLD WHO THINKS POTTY LANGUAGE IS FUNNY SO THEREFORE THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE READ TO. COME TO THINK OF IT, IT IS LIKE IT HAS BEEN WRITTEN BY A 3 OR 4 YEAR OLD. EVEN THEN THEY WOULD ONLY THINK IT WAS FUNNY BECAUSE MOM OR DAD WAS SAYING BUTT AND POOP EVERY OTHER WORD. TRUST ME ON THIS. I LOVE BOOKS AND HAVE READ HUNDREDS OVER THE YEARS WITH MY KIDS. I HAVE NEVER GIVEN A REVIEW ON HERE ABOUT ANY OF THE BOOKS BUT I HAD TO LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT THEY WERE GETTING INTO WITH THIS HORRIFIC BOOK. THIS BOOK WAS PAINFUL AND NOT AT ALL FUNNY. IT DOESN'T DESERVE ANY STARS BUT YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE ONE! TOO BAD!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Butt-derful! Butt-nificant!
Review: The title made me laugh & the rest of the book was just as delightful, although a bit silly for most adults. I'm giving it to my nephew in the hopes that it is gross & funny enough that he will actually READ it. A great way to get non-reading pre-teen boys into reading.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sure to become a butt classic
Review: This book from Australian author Andy Griffiths (of Zombie Butts from Uranus fame) just goes to show you how far things have come in the young reader genre since I was a kid 40 years ago. Back then it was more like Tom Swift, the Hardy Boys, Dr. Suess, and Dr. Doolittle. But there wasn't anything as raucous and outrageous as this funny, farcical story about wayward butts and their butt-shenanigans from Griffiths.

The story follows 12-year old Zack, who discovers one night his butt can detach itself and go wandering around the town at night on its stumpy little legs, hanging out with other wayward butts and getting into trouble such as mooning passersby and causing accidents, and perpetrating other butt pranks. Zack has to bring back his butt before it gets into more trouble and the judge throws his butt in the slammer. This is only the tip of the iceberg, however, and Zack soon discovers that there is a widespread butt conspiracy that threatens the peace and tranquility of the entire town and that must be stopped no matter what the cost.

Griffiths never misses an opportunity to use every bit of butt wordplay or gag he can throw in, which is a big part of the book's fun and humor. For example, you'll meet cluster butts, kamikaze butts, stinkants, buttcatchers, and even the fearsome Stenchgantor, "the Great Unwiped Butt," who lives in the Brown Forest--which used to be the Great Black Forest before he arrived and polluted it with his--shall we say, gaseous and foul emissions. A great world-wide army of feral butts is forming, "the greatest buttcano in the history of the world." Zack joins the butt-bashing and butt-busting B-Team (Butt Team) that includes the Kicker, the Kisser, and the Smacker, who all "...love the smell of freshly smacked butt in the morning." Zack is armed with a fearsome butt-busting weapon, the 4502-LL ("Laxative Launcher"). As if that weren't enough, there are also Butt-piranhas, poopoises, and Butt-sirens, and the Great White Butt, who has never been defeated.

That's just a few of the butt-based ideas and gags. A bit of a low-brow mindset and wit will help you to get the maximum laughs out this book of bawdy butt badinage and butt hijinks--as long as you don't turn into a real buttinsky yourself.* :-)

*Sorry, I couldn't resist. "Badinage" means light, playful banter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!
Review: This book is GREAT!
The butts are trying to take over the world ( Well... they are trying to take the place of "heads"...) ! There's the Big White Butt who's the leader of butts, then there's Zack who's trying to save the world (and his butt) with the B-team and Eleanor, there's also all kinds of butts!
The whole book is funny, it's one of the best books I've ever read! ( Beleive me, I've read A LOT of books).
You WILL enjoy it ( I'm not so sure about adults though...)

Rating: 4 stars
