Reviews
"This book was great! It's cleverly written and beautifully illustrated. My son was laughing through the whole book and loved looking at the pictures. Highly recommended to anyone with kids. The witty style has humor that only adults would catch while the more obvious potty talk kept my son entertained throughout the read. It is clearly one of his favorite books and he's quoting it now all the time. Can't wait for the next S.N.O.T.S.!" -Michael Neubauer, pixel ninja progenitor
"I got the chance to read this before passing it to my kids, and the fact that I (46 year old man) giggled at the same parts as my 8-year old son means this comic/book will do the same for anyone who picks it up." -Nirmal Sekhri, parental unit #2589
"It has the perfect blend of video game culture, quirky characters, and a dash of potty humor, this book offers a captivating reading journey that will appeal to both young readers and adults alike." -Luis Soto, S.N.O.T.S. personal driver
"I really liked this book! One of my favorite things about it is how the author changes words to make them sound more funny. Like instead of saying 'spectacular' it says 'pooptacular.' I like how creative and detailed the drawings are and I think it's cool that it's based on video games, because video games are appealing to many kids. I would recommend this book for other kids!" -Cadet Kacures, 10 year old video game wizard
"An amazing, new book series that my kids will read over and over again!" -Rebecca Soltes, educator of officers
"My 10 year old daughter has been obsessed in reading graphic novels. She will sit and read them front to back within a few hours. For Call of Doody, it was no exception. Never have I heard her laugh while reading a book. Once done, she said she loved it, adored the illustrations and very funny. My youngest son and I will be reading it next! Can't wait to get some laughs out of him before bed!" -Alessandro Miralles, Martian pappy
"This book is super cool, funny and fun. It is really creative with great pictures and interesting characters." -8 year old poop emoji devotee
"The book effortlessly weaves together engaging storytelling and captivating characters. The author's talent for creating suspense leads to a satisfying cliffhanger that leaves readers eager for the next installment." -Vincent Vardijan, spaceship salesman
