Find out about their important work improving sanitation in some of the world’s most impoverished nations at www.worldtoilet.org This is a book for the non-squeamish among us who wished there was an irreverent version of Everybody Poops written for adults. We collected the raw material for these stories from family, friends and our blog readers. Thank you to everyone who shared their tales of woe and let us present them in a humorous light. After all, poop is the lowest common denominator of human existence—and we think it’s hilarious.
