From "Snuff": 'Vimes' prompt arrival got a nod of approval from Sybil, who gingerly handed him a new book to read to Young Sam. Vimes looked at the cover. The title was "The World of Poo". When his wife was out of eyeshot he carefully leafed through it. Well, okay, you had to accept that the world had moved on and these days fairy stories were probably not going to be about twinkly little things with wings. As he turned page after page, it dawned on him that whoever had written this book, they certainly knew what would make kids like Young Sam laugh until they were nearly sick. The bit about sailing down the river almost made him smile. But interspersed with the scatology was actually quite interesting stuff about septic tanks and dunnakin divers and gongfermors and how dog muck helped make the very best leather, and other things that you never thought you would need to know, but once heard somehow lodged in your mind.

 Another Discworld Tied in Winner by Mr Pratchett

| | See all Garfgeezer's reviews (32)

For those who have read Snuff, The World of Poo will have some meaning and reference. For those who haven't read it yet, it's not a pre-requisite. You'll enjoy this book regardless of your age and the humour IS aimed at all ages - the older you become, the more jokes you'll find and get!

You'll be able to read this to your kids (probably aged 7 onwards) and have them howling with laughter at the farting and poo references whilst reading between the lines and enjoying some of the more mature humour that will fly over the heads of youngsters.

Some of the details in the book are even educating, albeit in a probably useless manner except for general knowledge quizzes.

Sheer genius and a perfect Discworld tie in. Better that Where's my Cow, but not by much...
