Monkey and the rest of the gang have more of a problem, for that day then just flatulence. It seems a small gang of ninjas with water guns wants to turn the school into a charter school and the leader (use your mystery skills to figure this one out) is personally out to get Monkey and prove he is smarter then he acts.
It doesn’t take long for the Ninjas to turn the school upside down. So it’s up to the smart boys to solve this problem and keep their smartness in tack. It will take all their skills to come up with a plan to turn everything back up again.
There is in-depth notes at the end telling about the stuff they mention in the book.
Make sure you tell Monkey he does have a weapon.

I have to admit the title turned me off. However, when I brought the book home and started reading it to my 9-year-old son, the rest of my kids gathered around to listen. I stopped reading about halfway through because my voice gave out, so my 13-year-old son grabbed the book and finished it on his own. A fun book for all ages, it had all of us rolling on the floor laughing, and my 9-year-old son stayed up late talking to me about it. Any book that can move my kids that much has my vote of approval. Highly recommended.

GR Level: ?
Elementary: FIC SHE
This is definitely a well-written book geared to elementary school boys.
The title gives a little clue that there is some humor geared toward flatulence and if you want your child reading something about someone with gurgle guts, then you should pick this up.
However, for me personally, I didn't love it. The plot line has too much “unbelievable” elements for a realistic fiction book, it was too unbelievable for me and their was not enough logic behind what was going on.
