The shape of this universe.
My Big Fat Smelly Poo Diary is Jim Smith's full-colour gross-out graphic novel franchise about Pedro, Olga and Ozzy, three best friends known as the Poopies. The books are built for children who find toilet humour irresistible: poo jokes, smelly mysteries, comic panels, friendship chaos and a very high silliness ratio. It is not subtle and it is not trying to be. Its strength is accessibility: bright pages, short comic episodes, quick jokes and the kind of gleeful disgustingness that can pull reluctant readers through a whole book before they realise they have been reading.
A very silly, very smelly graphic novel series for children who love poo jokes, friendship gangs and fast full-colour comic chaos.
