Space, Humans, and Farts by Dan Gutman - ADVISABLE

My Weird School Fast Facts: Space, Humans, and Farts by Dan Gutman, 181 pages.  Harper Collins, 2017, $6.  

BUYING ADVISORY: EL- ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

A.J. and Andrea are back. With some help from their science teacher, Mr. Docker, they explore science, scientists, the solar system, and more. Always full of fast facts and fun jokes, A.J. and Andrea keep the conversation going from start to finish. 

Like the other books in the series, this one is done as if it were a continuous conversation between A.J., Andrea, and their teacher. It is a quick read that scratches the surface of a lot of different scientific facts. Not to be mistaken as a science text, it is entertaining and can keep the attention of an eight year old. A good read or read aloud for second to fifth graders. A good book for a library that wants to expand fun and funny non-fiction for younger readers.
