There's not really much one can say about this book, as it literally does what it says on the tin, haha.
A frivolous and somewhat irreverent look at some facts, figures and trivia, to keep oneself amused while sitting on the toilet.
Covering everything from how to do toilet paper origami, to the group names for certain animals, when things were invented, and lots more besides.
There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason, as to why the things that the book covers were chosen, or indeed, put in the order that they are in, but it is interesting, with the emphasis very much on fun, and perhaps with the sole intention, of taking your consideration away from the job in hand, in mind!
The opening gambit is 'Learn The Planets', so obviously, it starts with the Sun, giving you it's diameter, which is, 1,392,000 KM. Unfortunately (for any would be passers by), being a fan of The Office (US), I couldn't help but shout out, "SHUT UP ABOUT THE SUN!!" , haha! If you know, you know!
A great wee book, a great wee gift and a great Christmas 2025!
