Reflection: Everyone Poops is a fun book that young children are fascinated with and love to read. In my library system, the book is interfiled with the adult nonfiction books. The book has illustrations of animals and people pooping, and children are amused by the different sizes of poop. Having a book about this natural occurrence makes it easier for parents to explain this bodily function and for children to be comfortable talking about it. Some similar titles that go into more detail about pooping are The Truth about Poop by Susan E. Goodman and It Hurts When I Poop! by Howard J. Bennett, M.D.
