"Diving deep into the ins and outs of doo-doo — including what befalls poo when it’s flushed down the loo — this comic book caper trumps many a cack-themed competitor!"
September 2024 Non-Fiction Book of the Month
Part of the nattily-named Poo Crew Adventures series, Journey to Poo-Topia sets out to put paid to the notion that poo stinks!
Created by comic book dream team James Turner and Steve May, it’s a gloriously graphic novel that’s also gloriously (or should that be gorily?!) graphic when it comes to the (literal) ins and outs of poo, as a scatological science adventure is splattered (sorry not sorry) with fascinating facts that reveal why poo is, in the words of Professor Poo, “the most interesting and important substance in the entire universe!”
In the company of Professor Poo and Ploppy the talking poo, readers are sucked into a fact-and-faeces stuffed journey from food to mouth, to oesophagus, to stomach, to intestines, to (you guessed it!) rectum and beyond, with a chapter on toilets presenting the history of poo’s post-excretion fate through time.
Oozing all manner of weird (and windy) facts about the human body and the excretory habits of animals, Journey to Poo-Topia mashes-up science and comic book capers like never before.

Pooptastic!
This book helps you to learn how food you eat digests into poo... But this is done in a funny way with Professor Poo and a little poo called Ploppy.
They give lots of facts about poo which are interesting and helps you learn, but they are funny as well. This might be good for someone to read if they don't like learning or reading, but they find poo funny.... Read Full Review
