When a boy who loves his dog but hates picking up dog poo takes a shortcut across the grass on the way to school, he learns that everyone has a poo story and it’s up to him to break the mighty poo curse. Based on a collection of true dog poo stories, this funny rhyming picture book reminds readers of all ages that we’re all in this together, and one small action can have a big impact, even when nobody sees it.
Oh Poo! A Cautionary Tale is inspired by the author’s daughter almost stepping in dog poo on the parking strip each morning as they race to school. When she shared her dismay with others, she realized that she’d tapped into a universal experience: everyone has a poo story, but nobody knows why this mighty poo curse persists. Most poop or poo stories in the children’s book market relate to potty training or rely on being gross and silly to engage. Oh Poo! is unique in that while it touches on the gross factor, the stories in the book are based on real events that show the impact that just one piece of poo had on people. The book makes a fun gift to new pandemic puppy owners, dog lovers (or haters), and anyone who might need a not-so-subtle hint. It can also be a useful tool for parents, educators, local governments, and community organizers to help people realize the health and environmental hazards of not picking up after one’s dog, and of course the social stress inflicted upon others when they step in poo. Oh Poo! is a memorable, non-preachy tale that’s sure to spark the sharing of personal experiences and inspire positive action to help rid neighborhoods and public spaces of wayward poo for a healthier, happier world.
