Thank you Dr Suzie for doing the book signing. Looking forward to you next work.
Great gift, enjoyed it a lot! Made me laugh a few times too.
It’s not just for little kids lol
Amazing, witty, and hilariously accurate.
I bought this book for a 8 year old girl who recently suffered a life changing brain trauma. She still finds humor in poo so it’s a great match!
I am amazed at how quickly I received the book since I am in the US. Love the book and love Dr. Edge!!
Love everything Suzie does and this was no exception!
The book Is brill

Fabulous book by a fantastic author the book is great for any age from 7 to 77
My 9 year old absolutely loves this book. Fun and interesting, she’s really enjoying the read (and I am too).
For my son. He loves this book, third of the way through and already wants to start again. Amazing writing Suzie,

Great service signed copy arrive promptly and can say if you want to engage your children then what better way than through poo 👍🏻 as an adult I have also purchased books from suzie edge one of my favourite authors
Bought it for my grandson , but found myself reading it. Loved it , illustrations fab too.
This book is amazing! My kids are a bit younger than the recommended age, however they are obsessed with wee and poop at the moment, therefore we decided to make it more educational and it is really working! After reading the first chapter we have been online to add a visual to the stories and who knew that looking and reading about public ancient toilets, is so much fun!
Excellent way to learn about history
Wonderful book for kids of all ages. Humorous and educational.
