using farts? Or that herrings communicate by passing gas? There are
animals that use their butts to protect themselves; others build
things with their butts; and some breathe through their butts!
Focusing on ten different animals and their derrieres, and offering
fun facts about their origin, habitat, and "posterior power," this
hilarious book captures the wonder of our ecosystem. Structured as
a "battle" in which each animal is a "challenger" to see who has
