I had a blast writing this book and it's been my best project creatively. I loved writing this book so much and I'm getting such great feedback that I'm thinking of writing a sequel. Watch this space!

I got a free copy of this book from Story Cartel in exchange for an honest review. But let's face it: How could any guy not want to read a book with a title like that?
A very interesting look at a somewhat not-so-serious problem. Someone really needed to slap Billy's parents up at the end for feeding him that breakfast. I'm surprised he hadn't propelled himself into orbit if that was his usually morning fare.

I received a free copy of this book from Story Cartel in exchange for a fair and honest review. I chose to download it because, I must admit, the title made me chuckle. I read the book twice – once with my nine-year-old daughter, and once with my seven-year-old son, to get their perspectives on the story.
The illustrations have a slight anime-style quality to them, and are generally good. The text could use a thorough proofreading: there were a number of missing commas and the odd its for it’s an ...more

I read this book and then my granddaughter Haylee read it to her 2 year old brother. Jacob Billy has a monster that is his best friend. They do everything together. There is only one problem. His monster farts all the time. There are two problems with this, they stink really bad and Billy always gets blamed for the stinky farts. One day at school they have a special visitor. Monster lets loose the biggest and smelliest fart ever. Billy knows he’s in trouble. Read the book to find out how he solv

This book is designed in my opinion for children of 3-6. With cartoon style pictures the child is able to follow along as you read, the words are large print so as they learn letters they can start to follow the words too.
This was read to a 3 year old boy, who absolutely loved it and wanted to go back and read it again. The whole mention of the word 'fart' has most children laughing and gets them interested in what is being said and in this case it was the same. He was laughing along happily and ...more

"How to Train A Monster"
I'm really laughing hard as the character, Billy, in this story is never alone. Wherever Billy goes, his Monster goes. As a single child he has invented his own companion. But Monster is always farting and Billy is always getting the blame. A great lesson of manners for young ones...and old ones! The illustrations in this children's book are wonderful, the dialog is great. This is a really cute story written by Author David Chuka. I enjoyed reading it and am anxious to sh ...more

Children love stinky, naughty things and David Chuka shows with this clever story that he must have been a "monster" of a little boy himself!
I laughed and laughed over this funny story which children - and I am sure their dads - will revel in :)
Well written and beautifully illustrated, a "must" for the birthday pressie or the Christmas stocking!
Comes highly recommended for your children - and yourselves!

A very cleaver and well written book. Every one in our family who has read it has loved it, and MAYBE some of the older ones have learned some things too! I wanted the book for my Grandson, (believe me he needed to learn this lesson!) and I am glad that we won! David did a good job, and we are looking forward to other books of his.

I received a free copy of this book from the author. He did not request or expect me to post a review in exchange for it, but I am choosing to do so.
Okay, stop giggling. “Billy and the Monster Who Loved to Fart” by David Chuka may not be the most intellectual book you will encounter today, but it is a book your young reluctant reader may just pounce on and decide reading isn’t so bad after all! Some adults may find the word offensive, just as some might find “booger” to be offensive, but to youn ...more

We received this book via Story Cartel to give an honest review.
I thought this book would be good for my 7 year old. But he didn't quite enjoy it like I thought. He said is was an okay book.
I thought it was funny when the little boy blamed the monster for his gas. It is like how we do here when someone passes gas, "it wasn't me it was the bullfrog. Did you hear it?" And we get a chuckle and say excuse me.
The drawings were okay but what bothered me was the fact that you would get a picture with ...more

This is a fantastic little story that all our youngsters will enjoy! There is nothing like a story about bodily functions, particularly farts, to reduce a room full of children (and adults!!) to laughter and this book will do that every time the cover is opened. It has gorgeous illustrations throughout depicting the horribly smelly trouble that Billy and his best friend monster keep getting into and also how Billy was able to become the coolest kid in school after some quiet advice from Dad.

The amount of text in this book makes it appear appropriate for elementary school early readers, but the story line seems to be more appropriate for toddlers. I must admit I am not an admirer of bathroom humor; still this book just does not hit the mark. The illustrations are rather stylized and the text layout is uneven in the kindle edition, Some of the plot is not believable, a teacher telling a child, "Your fart stinks," the bus driver tells Billy, "That smells rotten!", and Billy's mother g

This is an ok book. My children were bored with it, and while I thought it might be good for some cheap laughs for them it wasn't. Perhaps borrow it before you buy, I think this could be a hit or miss for a lot of people.
