Do you know the name of a book with poo on an animal's head??

I have heard of this book where an animal (I think) has poo on his head and all the animals s/he comes across say that it's not theirs because they do their poos like this...etc. I know it seems very rude, but I think my nephew would love it.

If any of you have heard of it, do you know what it's called and where I could get it?

I've just discovered a great book called Captain Yellowbelly - The Tale Of The Terrible Pirate. There are no moles but it does mention "poo" six different times. My son loves it.

www.amazon.co.uk/Captain-Yellowbelly-Tale-Terrible-Pirate/dp/1845392809/ref=sr_1_2?ie= UTF8&s=books&qid=1203605126&sr=8-2

I've got an appropriately waterproof book called 'the throne' about the members of a royal household using the loo. Hilarious!

lol - I didn't realise there was a plop up version

I bought the standard version for a friend's DS who was refusing to poo on the toilet or potty and withholding it.

He loved the book and it really helped him get over the poo problem.

Friend said its his favourite. In fact I must get it for my (poo-obsessed) DS, along with some of the others mentioned on here

weve got it here LOVE IT!

We had the normal book and got given the Plop Up version at Xmas...it is a bit graphic, esp the pig poo.

Anyway everyone on this thread with toilet humour will like this book too Who's in the loo?.

Enjoy!

itsahardknocklife · 21/02/2008 10:51

brilliant, thanks. I must have it! I mean for my little boy, of course...

snooks · 21/02/2008 10:39

itsahardknocklife sorry just seen your post.

Well we bought it about 3 & a half years ago, when ds1 was born, but it was only Waterstones, nowhere special

itsahardknocklife · 20/02/2008 20:03

look hilarious! I want it! Where did you get the one with the stuffed mole?

snooks · 20/02/2008 19:55

We've got the version with a soft stuffed mole complete with a soft stuffed poo on his head!

pootleflump · 20/02/2008 19:51

I went and bought the book after reading this thread - it's brilliant! Me and dd were in stitches when we got to the end .

oh, dd2 loves this book! But she took it into school when they were asked to bring in their favourite books - and I don't think her teacher was too impressed

legalalien · 15/02/2008 15:28

for anyone who likes that, I bet you'd also like walter the farting dog. made me smile, anyway!

Botbot · 15/02/2008 15:23

And one of my colleagues has a wonderful time carting two huge stuffed moles round bookshops by taxi. They're in Foyles and Waterstones Piccadilly at the moment, mole fans!

Botbot · 15/02/2008 15:20

I work for the company that makes it!

The Little Mole has his own Facebook group if you're interested...

lexcat · 15/02/2008 15:17

Great book,first read it at a friends house and nearly wet myself laughing.
Don't buy if your not into toilet humour, my neice got given it and my sister hates it but her dad is always happy to read it.

S1ur · 15/02/2008 00:24

Yeah. This book is good. My dd loved it when she was fascinated with shit due to trip to zoo and elephant....

madamez · 15/02/2008 00:22

My DS loves this book. But you have to read it aloud with all the relevant grunts and fart noises .

blousy · 14/02/2008 23:53

This is one of my staples for birthday presents - always goes down very well!

redpyjamas · 14/02/2008 23:50

I have it in German. Only found out recently-ish that it was also in English.

aefondkiss · 14/02/2008 23:01

I have it in Dutch, with my friend's (who hails from Dundee) very own translation.

cece · 14/02/2008 22:58

It is rather good.

Scramble · 14/02/2008 22:55

Cool there is a pop up version even better.
