Aronson’s rhymed verses will be a treat to read aloud, assuming,
that is, they can be heard over audience laughter. . . . should
reduce any storytime group to pandemonium.
—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred
review)
Aronson’s story of a scatological stumper will elicit giggles. . .
The quiz and the paean to poo at the close add a little fun and
science, respectively. Laberis’ digitally created cartoon
illustrations are worthy of Disney—if Disney did doo-doo. . .
Stinky science with a sprinkle of silly.
—Kirkus Reviews
In this deeply silly but impressively informative rhyming mystery
tale, young people can learn to be dropping detectives. . . . In
addition to a lot of silliness, the book ends with a visual guide
to poo of many sorts, and an explanation of the environmental role
it plays.
—The Virginian Pilot
