Walter the Farting Dog

This is a hilarious and fun book by William Kotzwinkle. The story of Walter is very heroic....and smelly. Walter is a dog that no one wants. He finally finds a home with two small children but there is only one problem....Walter farts. The children try all sorts of funny and interesting remedies to cure poor Walter from his farts. But everything they try just makes him fart more and more. Poor Walter must go back to the pound tomorrow. But miraculously in the middle of the night two robbers try and rob the house but Walters farts ironically capture the bandits.

This book is great for kids! Children already think farting is hilarious so adding a story line with it is awesome. I love the neat pictures in this book and the story is very cleaver. It teaches children that not everyone is perfect and sometimes people can be misunderstood. This book also teaches children to accept everyone....even if they have gas.
