Combining facts about two of our most noisome and loud bodily functions with rhyming humor and colorful illustrations, “Belches, Burps, and Farts — Oh My!” is a book that is guaranteed to entice even the most reluctant readers to take a look. From our first, sweet burps on our mother’s shoulder, to animals that can and cannot fart, Artie Bennett’s research and Pranas Naujokaitis’s wonderfully wacky pictures offer a lot of food for thought. The book raises so many interesting facts that it quickly becomes a springboard for a trip to the library (“I didn’t know that! I want to know more!”), or you may find yourself making a family fart chart to see if it’s true that “we average 14 toots per day!” After you share this book with your 4- to 8-year-old child, story time will never be the same again!

“Belches, Burps, and Farts — Oh My!” book by Artie Bennett, $17.99, www.barne‌sandn‌oble.com.
