Sweet Farts

(8 customer reviews)

Someone has been farting up a storm at school and everyone thinks Keith Emerson is to blame. Unfortunately for Keith, it has earned him the nickname "S.B.D." (silent but deadly). To make matters worse, Keith's dad is a self proclaimed "Fart Machine" who really stinks it up at home. With the science fair quickly approaching, Keith decides he has had enough. He comes up with a science fair project idea to turn the foul smell of human gas into something sweet smelling. The idea lands him in the principal's office, and in big trouble with his mom. With the help of his little sister Emma, his dad, his crazy grandma, and Benjamin Franklin (great American scientist), Keith will attempt to make the greatest scientific discovery of all time, the cure for the common fart.

Great Read for Third Graders Nov 05, 2009
My third grader finished the latest installment of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and was utterly forlorn. He's a good reader, but somehow he would rather play Madden 10 than pick up a book. I searched Amazon and was lead to SweetFarts. It was a fantastic recommendation! The story encompasses the frustration and pressure of being teased at school, the frustration of having to do an assignment that seems onerous and painful AND a fantastic resolution to both of those issues! With the issue of passing gas liberally sprinkled throughout the tale, it kept my somewhat skeptical third grader glued to the pages.

The vocabulary is accessible, but challenging and the moral to the story is great. I highly recommend this book to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2nd - 4th grade audience.

Wonderful fun. Oct 28, 2009
We got this for some friends' kids, and they love it over and over (little boys!). Laughter is good medicine!

Funny, but not quite what I expected... Jul 04, 2009
My son and I enjoyed this book, and while it had its funny moments and was very educational, it was not quite as funny as we expected it would be. I guess as a parent I expected it would be more crude than it was, which might make it funnier for my son! It has good humor, and ironically, teaches kids a great deal about science and Ben Franklin! Good read overall, if you aren't looking for crude fart humor. lol

4th grade teacher May 07, 2009
My students love this book. It is gross, which hooks them all in, but not gross enought to make it inappropriate. It also teaches kids about being different and trying to change the world for the better. A fun read. My only complaint is that I felt there were some grammatical errors in the book.
