All Aboard The Poo Boat is a hilarious and informative story that will be perfect for young elementary readers that don’t mind a little stinky talk. I let my five-year-old select which book we would read today, and when he saw this cover he was hooked immediately. What can I say, he has pretty specific interests 💩😂

The book is set up in a clue game format. The main characters give the reader hints about the color, smell, size, and texture of the poo, then you get to guess which animal you think is responsible for the 💩. My personal favorite is the chapter on the animal that squirts poo like a water gun!

I love books that allow for effortless discussion between parent and child. It’s a short book and can easily be read in one setting, but we spent over an hour together as we laughed and learned with each page. While poo isn’t my favorite conversation topic, I was charmed and will read any story that helps me connect with my son.
5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Drs Egg, Yang, and Woong are back for another poo-venture to look at clues to see who dropped the poos in All Aboard the Poo Boat: Book2.

The book reads almost like a game, which different chapters representing different types of poo, and each character having different strengths. It makes the adventure even more intricate, which is fun for any reader.

The books is formatted as a comic book, which gives a different type of read from a standard picture book. It's also funny- the character have such a good time together and the reader really feels like the fourth friend in the poo gang.

For each poo found, the reader is given clues as to who the poo belongs to. Clues are given about different types of animals and their digestive systems, leaving the reader to understand context clues, biology, and comprehension in order to choose who the poo belongs to. I really appreciate how the information is presented, and any child who loves science, especially biology, will fall in love with the poo crew and their poo-ventures.

The Drs get tricked in the first book, and their adventure for learning and finding out about whose poop is continued in the second book. Where we get to learn about even more animals in their environments, what they eat, and why their stuff is the way that it is. These books are great educational tools for both kids and adults if they are into learning about animals in this way.

I did not read the first book in this series, but I can see how a book about poo can be entertaining. I think the illustrations were cute and friendly. The content was age appropriate and helps young readers to not only identify different types of poop, but also learn more about specific animals and their diets.

This is #2 out of a 3 book series about animal poop. This provides many clues and facts for children and adults. My kids and I all enjoyed reading this book.

Another awesome poopy adventure with an amazing amount of information! Our young scientists are making their way around on a poo boat, finding different kinds of poo to identify. We get to learn about the animals, what they eat, what their poo is good for, and how important their poo is for the environment. For me, the oddest and most interesting thing was the poo you can use to make expensive coffee.
This book is hilarious, with fun illustrations and clear, bright photos of all the gorgeous animals. What a fantastic way to learn! Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this.

💩 I love sharing books about poop! Not only are they fun and great for engaging reluctant readers due to the subject matter, but they are also incredibly informative! Today’s graphic novel poo book is exceptional!

💩 The book is designed as a challenge to identify different types of poo. The characters discover a mysterious (and plastic) golden poo that contains 8 capsules of various animal poo. They must identify the owner of the poo based on its appearance and smell. Once identified, the book provides extensive information about the creature, including what they eat, how they digest food, and more. There is a wealth of great information in this book, all revolving around poo!

💩 The graphic novel format will appeal to readers, and the illustrations are amazing and often hysterical. You will see a lot of animals pooping in this book!

💩 Poo might seem taboo, but honestly, I learned so much from this poo book! And if I’m learning something, your children will too. I highly recommend this book!

Thank you @netgalley and Lerner Publishing Group/Graphic Universe for an eARC of these books, which I have read and reviewed honestly and voluntarily. I reviewed both books simultaneously on social media so the review for book 1 (The Golden Poo) will be the same as this one.

All Aboard the Poo Boat may be one of the silliest informational books I've ever read, and it's also so so niche. We see characters trying to guess which animals various poo samples come from based on their characteristics. I'm still not sure why we need this information, but it is out in the world. Elementary aged kids will find this hilarious!

Thanks to Lerner Publishing Group and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.
