ANew York TimesBestseller! "Is there any reason to purchase this, besides the fact that kids will find it hysterical? The dialog is clever...and the art is quite ingenious. Seemingly computer-conceived characters-including Walter complete with a permanently abashed expression-are unique efforts, as are the smoothly colored backgrounds. All in all, it's a gas." -Booklist "Kotzwinkle and education writer Murray know their audience.

    It's a Gas!!!

    This book was published after my kids were too old for it, but, fortunately, my grandkids have come along in time that I didn't miss it all together. I could barely make it through the first reading because I was laughing so hard. There have been many readings since, and it still cracks everyone up. Probably not a good choice for a school book report or for getting somebody to take a nap, It will, however, encourage reading. There are other Walter books, but this is where the legend begins. I recommend it, it can be found at a great price, and compelling? It took my breath away.

  • Cute! Walter and his unfortunate problem save the day! Very entertaining :)

    This book is so cute and is sure to get your little one to giggle. I realize it might be a little on the crude side, but hey...we all fart and it's one of those things in life that just happens and all you really can do is laugh about it. My 7 year old thinks farts are hilarious anyhow, so reading about Walter's unfortunate problem turning to a heroic experience made a great story that entertained both me and my son. If it gets him to read and sharpen his reading skills while being entertained, then that makes me happy too. We enjoyed this book a lot and I will be purchasing the next in the series. We also love the Bad Kitty books by Nick Bruel so if you do like Walter's story check out the series of Bad Kitty books too. Especially "Bad Kitty takes a bath." Hilarious.

  • Cute book!

    My five year old grandson loved it!! His bulldog has the same problem, so he could relate. Cute and funny story!

  • Walter, the Farting Dog

    Children seem to think anything to do with bodily functions is quite amusing, and this book really proves it. I read some reviews for this book and decided my grandchildren would like it- and they did. I have to read it to them every night that they are here with us, and the 7 year old even tries to get me to read it twice in a row. It is a cute story and is very entertaining- even to the adults. Of course hearing our grandchildren laugh so much is amusing enough for us. We highly recommend this book- the children in your life ( and probably the adults too ) will love it!

  • Walter the Farting Dog

    It is a first in the series. We love the storylines and the cute characteristic view of this family's dog. At first, the dad doesn't like Walter because of his strong smelling flatulence problem, but after he sees how lucrative he can be, he has a change of heart and decides to keep Walter after all. The kids are happy, Walter is happy, everybody is happy until..... Every book has a new adventure where Walter always ends up being the hero for the day. Very cute books to read to your kids and grandkids.
