The Truth about Poop

40 pp. | Viking | May, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-670-03674-9 $$15.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Elwood H. Smith. This volume briefly describes the biological function of human elimination, recounts the history of toilets and toilet paper, and explains what happens to waste after it's flushed away. A breezy tone and comical illustrations keep things fairly tasteful, even when exploring such topics as the amount and frequency of animal elimination and the souvenirs one can buy at Alaska's Moose Dropping Festival.
