Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Age 3 and over

. The Little Mole Who Knew it Was None of His Business is, quite simply, one of the funniest books you are ever likely to read (as long as you are not easily offended, that is!), with its unusual take on a natural bodily function combined with a simple tale of nature and discovery.

When the little mole of the title discovers a pile of, well, pooh, on his head, he is absolutely certain that it doesn't belong to him, but sets out on a mission to discover who exactly the culprit really is. His investigation takes him into the world of many animals, as he wanders and compares the pile on his head to the piles that animals leave behind them.

Outrageously funny, this cracking little book is an absolute delight and not only gives children the chance to talk about one of their favourite topics for discussion, but is also an intriguing way of introducing the idea of a nature trail, taking them on a trip that will leave them both laughing and learning.

Perfect for children,of course, but if you are stuck for gift ideas for the adults in your life you may need to look no further. --Susan Harrison --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Review

A phenomenal success since its UK publication in 1964, The Story of the Little Mole has delighted children and adults alike. This new board book edition will add to this already sizeable audience. --This text refers to the Board book edition.

I ordered this hardback edition as I read to groups of children and wanted something a bit sturdy. The hardback is sturdy enough ..... it is just very small about 6 inch by 4 inch. This is no good for groups who need to see the pictures as well. My suggestion is to buy the paperback as this is very big and you can see good pictures of poo!

Kids love this book! It is short, funny and has some good pictures. 5 stars for content. 0 stars for hardback size that was not described in the advert.

Hilarious, informative and fun to read. I have bought this book for nearly every child I know, and its been adored by all of them.
Little Mole wakes up one morning to find a poo on his head, we then follow him in his quest for tracking down the poo culprit. Along the way we discover all different kinds of animal poo along with their shape, size and sounds!
I would recommend this to anyone buying for children, or indeed immature adults!

Because kids like poo. I'm sorry to be crass about it, but it's true. Children are at the stage when they are exploring the world and everything in it, and things that are disgusting to adults are particularly fascinating (especially to boys). I've read this to my class and it's sparked many fun discussions and loads of laughter, and they've asked for it again and again.

Fantastic! Explicit and helpful
Just as needed for a poor constipated toddler. Showing that pooing is natural! Finally a non-policically-correct book. Yes! And it's funny too :)
