Walter the Farting Dog by William Kotzwinkle and Glenn Murray


When I picked this book off the shelf at the library I was very interested on why it could be a #1 New York Times bestseller. I had to find out for myself why this book was so good because on the cover and title I was very hesitant about reading this. I know I shouldn't judge a book by the cover but it does happen sometimes.

I'm not a huge fan of the pictures in the book. I think they make the story more interesting and funny but just the way the people and Walter look in the book bothers me. The way it is aligned in the book with the text is really creative. It changes every page and doesn't look the same which I do like and I like the different type of font the authors use for the text.

I really liked this book because it shows that everyone is different and no one has the same talents or problems. I think it makes the reader realized that you must treat everyone in a kind respectful way no matter if they seem "different" or not. This book also is very funny and I believe would interest little kids because the book is talking about farting.
