This book for children may be capable of setting the record for the number of "Yeeeews" uttered by the young people that read it. The premise is that an older sister (Falisha) decides to get rid of her annoying younger brother (Jesse) by flushing him down the toilet. Her infuriated mother tells her that she must go down the toilet and get him back.Horrified at the thought, Falisha nevertheless agrees to flush herself to engage in a rescue mission. Her experiences in the yuckiest area of the universe are sure to elicit an enormous amount of giggles from the young readers. There is plenty of smelly goop, gross bugs, drippy slime and brown "dirt" everywhere. It is a hilarious retelling of the classic tale of Alice falling down the rabbit hole.
