Poor Toby Tootles! He was having the best birthday party ever...until he farts! His guests laugh and Toby is embarrassed. 

When he visits his grandmother, she toots. Toby is shocked. Grandmother says, "gas happens." Later, Toby toots again. He agrees gas happens and shares a laugh with his grandmother. An embarrassing moment doesn't have to be so awful. It's natural. 

The author's note includes a personal experience about embarrassing moments, but how you handle those moments makes the difference. 

Toby Tootles is a cute book about a normal experience. 

Ages 18 months and up.
