What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book's content is centered on 'gross-out' humor, which is handled in a very light, scientific, and age-appropriate manner. There are no sensitive topics like death, divorce, or violence.
Ideal Reader
The ideal reader is a 7 or 8-year-old who loves collecting 'weird but true' facts to share with friends and family. This child is likely a fan of the Stink or Judy Moody fiction series and enjoys non-fiction that feels more like a toy or a game than a textbook. It’s also a perfect match for a reluctant reader who is motivated by humor and short, digestible chunks of text.
