I Need a New Bum! (The New Bum Series)

Product Information

How rude!” That’s the kind of response Dawn McMillan’s I New A New Butt is bound to get from some moms and dads. McMillan’s popular story was first published in New Zealand under the more polite title “I Need a New Bum.” This quirky little picture book may not be a guide to manners, but it’s a far cry from crude. Like it or not, you’ll be hard pressed to keep from smiling!

I Need a New Butt! by Dawn McMillan | Goodreads

I found some of the humour in this forced at times, but I can see it would appeal to young children. This is the kind of book that can engage kids into reading books. The illustrations are colourful, relevant to the text, and funny. The story itself is the right level of sillyness and playfulness that you want in a kids book. Not surprisingly it abounds in bum and fart jokes, and even has some bum puns. Admittedly, the text may not earn the author a spot in Poet's Corner, but then again, this is not supposed to be high poetry. Did I want to be in the New York Times one day? Yes! For my kids book, comics, or Grog the Zombie videos. But here we are… https://t.co/eyvhSXRx6o— Toby Price (@jedipadmaster) March 12, 2022Price, who has been teaching for 20 years, said the district superintendent, Delesicia Martin, called him into her office and told him he was being placed on leave. Two days later, Price said, he was accused of breaking the Mississippi Educator Code of Ethics, and fired. Thanks to NetGalley and Dover Publications for the e-ARC. Publication date of I Need a New Butt! is on September 17, 2014. He has three children to support, he said, two with severe autism, adding: “I’m tired. I’m stressed. I’m overwhelmed. I need to work.” All in all, this book is just fantastic. Let’s stop banning books and just have fun again. Let kids read and be read aloud to whatever they want. If they want butts, then go for it! Recommended!

This book is great for kids of any age but I'm sure this is PERFECT for any family with little boys. I Need a New Butt is by far is my boys (4 &6 yr) favorite bedtime book. They are constantly asking for the "bottom" book and then they spend the whole time giggling. This book is just down right silly, there's not really a point to it which makes it more hilarious to them. The wording is simple and this book is just long enough to entertain the children without being too long for the parent to enjoy reading to them. This book was lots of fun, I read it with my niece today who's almost 4 and hilarity ensued. It resulted in her parading around the room showing me how she would walk if she had to get a new butt like the ones the little boy thought of in the book. The illustrations were great and really got her imagination going, she spent ages after reading it talking about all the different styles of new butts she could think up and how funny they would be. This was ADORABLE. :D It's a short book filled with imaginative butts...what could be better? The Illustrations by Ross Kinnaird really make the book special, since they're so incredibly colorful. I took more time on this book than one normally would, because I was staring at all of the colorful illustrations that I'm sure children would adore. The rhyming scheme within this book also added to the fun of reading it.

I have taught some kids in high school who wouldn't necessarily know some of those words. But then, hose unfortunate kids never had their grannies read to them (or their moms, dads or other interested family members). If what the research suggests is true, that one is able to learn the most up until the age of 5, then please read books with good vocab!In I Need a New Butt!, a little boy thinks he broke his butt so he starts thinking of what kind of replacement butt he should have. Price told the Times literacy instruction was crucial at his school, in a county where more than 21% live under the poverty line. Shopping for pressies for my nephew! (I read it. It counts. It's December and I am behind my reading goals!)
