Let’s just say it might be a most popular title with a certain age-level of child out there. Justifiably so. – School Library Journal
Most of the book highlights the importance of glutes in the animal kingdom, especially how they incorporate the senses, from the mandrills’ red behinds, which help them stick together in the jungle, to the herrings’ ultrasonic farts (a sound only they can hear), which help orient them into groups. At the heart of the book, however, is body positivity, emphasized through a range of butt sizes and shapes. – Booklist
Cheeky fun, with bits of solid matter. (Informational picture book. 5-7) – Kirkus Reviews.
Expressive, anthropomorphized butts of different colors serve as guides throughout this big book of butt facts. The breezy, conversational tone complements the text, which begins with a brief evolution of butts, including how the development of mouths and butts led to larger, more intelligent life. – Booklist Back(side)list: Butts Are Where It's At
Mr. Mopp's 2024 Bestseller List Top 100.
This book covers little-known “facts” about our butts (they love getting presents) as well as actual facts, like their development about 540 million years ago and why humans have such big ones. Most of the book explores the butts of the animal kingdom including their colors, the language of butts, the feel of butts (yaks have among the hairiest), the smell of butts, and two of the strangest of all, which belong to caterpillars and sea cucumbers.
This is everything I hope for in a nonfiction picture book! – Library Comic.
