Story about arseholes gaining consciousness and trying to take over the world. Very similar to The Trial of Henry Kissinger.
I was literally lying in bed minding my business and trying to fall asleep when I got gripped with this random memory that was like, “Do you remember the first book you ever took out of the library when you were a kid? Wasn’t it called Attack of the Flying Butts or something?” Anyways, the Butt Trilogy still haunts me into my 20s and I think that should tell you about the gripping, cerebral nature of these books.
We did not get past chapter 1 of this dreadful book. While my son has a healthy interest in bathroom humor and giggles at any mention of nuts, balls, flatulence, & butts, this was way too juvenile for him (if you can believe it). I can't imagine anyone liking this above 2nd grade, but the reading level seems too high for 2nd graders. Literally, butts jump off of their human bodies and run around with little arms & legs, speaking English words of revolt in flatulence, and have a war with the butt-less bodies left behind for their rightful place in the world; on top of the neck. My 4th grader and I were disgusted.
I had to force myself to read this to see if I wanted it in the library, and I don't. It was so gross, not funny gross, but disgusting gross. Like when the boy climbs a giant butt and pops the zit on the butt and uses the pus to propel himself in the air. Way too heavy on the gross factor. My 10 year old niece thought it was funny but I think it is wrong. Dead wrong.
Australian Literature FTW.
Also: don't listen to this while driving - I had to pull up I was laughing so hard.

I not doing to rate this because it was childhood favourite. I understands wow I loved it has a child but it not the same has reading as an adult
Read this as a kid and it was one of the best journeys I've been on. Highly recommend for those who would love to go back into childhood.
why tf did i read these when i was kid. they unnerved me then and they unnerve me now lmfao
My daughters (9 and 6 y.o.) recommended this book. They are big fans of Andy Griffiths and both roared with laughter when reading this book.
Don’t look at it from an grownup’s point of view. This book is not for that. It says so in the warning on the first page!! “If you are a parent or a teacher or even if you’re just over eighteen, put this book down now!! You won’t like it. You won’t understand it.”
