Trade Review“The author offers this frank fable of flatulence that, at its core, says sometimes a toot can make a tummy feel better (and it’s really nothing to make fun of). French artist du Fäy’s Matisse-y, blocky, colorful illustrations of cartoon creatures competitively cutting the cheese are perfectly in keeping with the cheeky tone of the text. A hoot about toots with a health lesson to boot.” ― Kirkus Reviews
