The Great Dog Bottom Swap: 10th Anniversary Edition

Product Information

Basically the plot explains why dog's sniff each other's bottoms. I won't say more than that, but it is hilarious. The fact that some parents might find it crude and disturbing adds to the experience!

Initially thought this book was totally bonkers but now it's one of my all time favourites!! So funny and silly and great pace.. our 3 year old absolutely loves it and so do we!

Home > It all began at the Dog’s Summer Ball, a highbrow affair with bow ties and tails…but bottoms, yes those little o-rings were hung up at the door! Quite early on, I could see what the customer found uncomfortable to see, (I too raised an eyebrow and went "eeww" when I realised what the little pink rings were. At first I thought they were cloakroom number tags or something!) I thought the bottoms would be a little bit more than that... but I suppose, if they were more, like their tail and legs etc. then the ending wouldn't have fit would it?As you know, I have two little boys. Now, I'm sure you also know that little boys love potty humour. So it was with great glee that we borrowed this book from the library:

This lively rhyming tale is reportedly taken from an older folk story. The clever visual layout and amusing artwork from award winning illustrator Mei Matsuoka will bring smiles to children, dog lovers and art appreciators alike. We will create an immersive show for families in grand halls. Join in with the events of the night and enjoy all the magic and mayhem. There may be points which are immersive or just straightforward end-on storytelling. All this needs to be explored. And most importantly – how will we portray THE DOGS? Maybe there are real dogs in it? Maybe there’s a show where audiences can bring their dogs!The day has arrived for the Dogs' Summer Ball. It's so high class that each dog must remove their bottom before they are allowed inside the hall. But in the middle of all the frivolity something unexpected happens and the dogs have to make a hasty exit...with or without the correct bottom! About This Edition ISBN:

Once the bottoms are hung, much merriment ensues. A huge feast featuring old sheep bones to chew, a cabaret, a Labrador telling rude jokes about cats, a dance and then… disaster! A great fire caused by too much frivolity. All the dogs escape, but there’s a catch – they can only grab any old bottom from the hooks in the hall. And ever since the, when a pair of dogs meet. In the park or the playground, the woods or the street, each dog gives the other dog’s bottom a sniff, to see if it has the particular whiff of the bottom they lost on the night of the ball This hilarious rhyming story follows Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy, as he sets off for a walk in town The story begins at a doggy ball- where the dogs are asked to hang their bottoms up before they sit for dinner- naturally the kiddies in my class were amused by the notion of bums hanging on hooks! Halfway through the story there is an unfortunate incident and a great fire- the dogs make a dash for it- but all end up grabbing the wrong bottom! Hence why they dogs now sniff each other- to see if they can find their bottom from that very night!Illustrated with beautiful simplicity, written with verve – and is like nothing else you’ll read this year.” (Benjamin Secher The Daily Telegraph) LoveReading4Kids exists because books change lives, and buying books through LoveReading4Kids means you get to change the lives of future generations, with 25% of the cover price donated to schools in need.

A fire breaks out and all the dogs flee the building. In their haste they all grab the first bottom they can reach in the cloakroom but unfortunately, they each take the wrong one. Now, whenever they meet each other in the street they sniff each other to try to find their own bottom again. There they are fed a grand feast, entertained by doggie musicians, magicians and canine comedians with sly jokes about cats. All is going swimmingly well until the dancing commences.
