Saw this book and immediately knew that I had to read it! We recently learned about “splooting” when we one of our neighborhood squirrels appeared to be dead on our yard. One Google search led to the next and we spent the better part of an hour learning about splooting!

This book is a very simple and cute picture book geared towards young children. It would be the perfect gift for any littles that love watching squirrels! 🐿️

Age recommendation: young children and toddlers. Zero content warnings.

The title was catchy, but then I was kind of lost. First, I thought "sploot" meant pass gas. Then I thought it meant to scurry. The end pages with the explanations helped a lot. It should probably be read twice. The illustrations were fun.

I was really hoping that this book was about the sploots that animals do and I could not have been more happy with this one

First of all, we get lots of good sploots in like excellent sploots all 11/10

We then learned that splooting is something that animals do when they are feeling hot and need to cool down.

I loved that this book had actual conflict and wonderful animal facts in it while also covering the wonderful sploot.

Thank you so much for this ARC! I appreciate the opportunity to leave honest feedback voluntarily.
