From the author of the classic Love You Forever, the bestselling picture book for 3-to-7-year-olds about a pesky fart monster is back for a new generation of readers! For fans of laugh-out-loud stories like No One Likes a Fart by Zoë Foster Blake.

When Carmen tries to tell her parents that there's a gas-tly surprise on her bed, they don't believe her. "Good families like ours do not have farts," they say. But when they go upstairs to check and the fart attacks, Carmen is left to deal with the stinky situation!

A refreshed edition of this story is brought to life with brand-new art by New York Times–bestselling illustrator Joy Ang for the whole family (and their farts) to enjoy.
