The MisAdventures of Mr & Mrs Poo
language
(Peter Allerton Publishing Dec. 17, 2014)
A couple of Poos find themselves in danger after being ‘born’ into the outside world. On a first day full of drama, they have to survive some unexpected problems while also trying to 'stick' together!
See the world through the eyes of a Poo in this funny children’s chapter story book for Primary School kids of all ages to enjoy. Parents and teachers should also like reading this humorous story, while it’s good for reluctant readers too.
This book also features follow-up questions includes the bonus poem (or 'Pooem') 'Your Poo & You', about our differences in the shape (literally) of our poos.
(approx. age 6-9: 2250 words)
Here's an excerpt from Chapter Poone:
'Maybe we can find another dog’s bottom to hide inside?’ Mrs Poo wondered.
‘Ah, that’s a fine idea!’ Mr Poo gave his wife a squelchy hug, then shouted ‘Look out!’ and threw her to the ground.
Out of nowhere, a gigantic pair of two-legged monsters came running towards them. The Poos froze on the spot, terrified. The monsters were moving too fast for them to get out of the way.
‘Urgh, dog poo!’ one shouted as she saw the Poos right in front of them. ‘Argh!’ screamed the other as she jumped over Mrs Poo. ‘That’s horrible, I nearly ruined my new jogging shoes!’
‘Hey, less of the horrible thank you, that’s my wife!’ Mr Poo shouted angrily after them.
