Title: Funny but... it's been done before and better
Review: I have never heard of "Flatulent Fred" (and neither has Amazon); however, Dog Breath!: The Horrible Trouble With Hally Tosis by Dav Pilkey (copywritten in 1994), as another reviewer mentioned, is esentially the same story (only with bad breath as opposed to gas) with a little better sense of writing and a much better sense of visual illustration. In my opinion, the only appealing visual in Walter is Walter himself. The people are freakishly rendered and a visual detraction from the story. Any book that makes children happy is okay by me and Dav Pilkey has created many books that children of all ages enjoy and seems to be doing pretty well on his own.That said I think it is a shame that his book is overlooked for this inferior version.
