Do you appreciate all that your tushy does for you? What if it left you, then what would you do? This happens in one unusual town: all the tushies escape in the middle of the night! The people don’t know what they’ll do—they can’t sit down and their pants don’t stay on—and yet the tushies are enjoying themselves on the beach. Will the townspeople be able to get their rear ends back?

It makes you wonder about the kind of person that thinks, “What would life be like if my butt abandoned me?” and then writes a book about it. In rhyme. Because that is what this is. It’s potty humor, but it is humorous nonetheless. It’s true! I laughed; I’m sorry. But little boys and girls everywhere will love this. They’ll giggle and giggle. Can’t say the same for the parent. And the illustrations? Well…have you ever wondered what a butt would look like if it had arms, legs, and a face?
