This wasn't my favorite children's book but I think there is a good lesson on teaching self-discipline...on  tightly controlling your  sphincter and excusing yourself before blasting a loud unbearable fart!At first, I thought the monster was an actual monster like Sesame Street's Mr. Snuffleupagus with Big Bird. But as I read on, I realized this is Billy's alter ego. I'm not sure which age group this  book belongs too. I can't imagine reading this as a bedtime story or even in classrooms. Personally, I would crack up laughing in class and everyone would be encouraged to fart even more!I have mixed feelings about the writing style....honestly it was written in a strange but comical way that adults would find amusing. I just don't think kids would take this book seriously! I think this book could be written for a lot of ADULTS who fart around the house during the holiday season....It could be a huge hit!The illustrations were animated and colorful. Personally, I didn't like them only because some pages were negative. There were scary looking expressions coming from the school inspector...if I was a kid being yelled at and showered with saliva, forget farting, I would have taken a serious s***!
