Review

Dan Gutman's My Weird School Fast Facts "Space, Humans, and Farts" is an excellent addition to your early chapter books or middle grade books. It uses characters from the My Weird School series to talk about different scientific facts about the human body, outer space, and farts. It is very funny and includes a lot of interesting information (even stuff that I didn't know, like the fact that girl farts are often smellier than boy farts because females have more concentrated hydrogen sulfide in their bodies!) and even some bad science jokes (in that they are groan-worthy). A must-buy. ~Reviewed by Kate Radke

Overall Book Score: excellent
