What could be better than a Fart with a heart? A Super Fart of course!


Wafting around with his stinky best friend Burp, Fart couldn’t be happier.
But sometimes Burp wishes people wouldn’t say,
YUCK and GROSS and PEE-YEW . . .

Could being smelly ever be a force for good?
A super stinker of a tale that proves anyone can be a hero.
