1 min read

BATB score: 4.5/10 😒
Adam Kay, I love you but this book was definitely trying too hard to be funny; the overloading cheap jokes on every page, here and there and everywhere, made this book painful to read
Best to: be grateful for our healthcare and medical advancement from our historical medieval (sparkle times) doctor's recommendation to consume a hot cup of pee 🟡 and a pinch of poo 💩 when you feel unwell #healingproperties
Best for: collectors of Adam Kay's books 📚
Best as: nice cartoon drawings so may work as a children's book - reading a few pages per bedtime expecting nothing more than cheap entertainment about farts and poo; nonsense child nonsense
