WORLD #TOILET DAY READING THREAD: It’s the day you’re all waiting for, and it can’t come fast enough, right? #WorldToiletDay.
November 19th is the day we get to celebrate #sanitation and think about how to make it better for everyone and for the planet.

I’m going to tweet out a mix of great books--one per day--with a link to buy them at http://Bookshop.org . Spoiler alert: On the last day, I’ll tell you about the book I’ve written, which is coming out in April from @AvidReaderPress.
I’ll also add your #worldtoiletday book recommendations if you tweet them at me with a brief note about why you suggest them.

So, with no further adoo-doo, let’s start easy, because the past few days have been A LOT.
EVERYONE POOPS by Taro Gomi. https://bookshop.org/a/15544/9781797202648
I adore its idiosyncratic humor (a two-hump camel makes a two-hump poop) and clever illustrations (a potty in the shape of a duck).

Most importantly, as a global phenomenon, EVERYONE POOPS has helped take the shame out of pooping. #worldtoiletday

Apropos of nothing going on right now, of course...have you ever craved the satisfaction of pooping on a bully’s head? While this book isn’t technically about toilets, I second this cheeky recommendation from @PH2E_UVic for our #WorldToiletDay reading countdown. Thanks, Caetano. https://twitter.com/ph2e_uvic/status/1324377254860779520
And here’s the bookshop link (slightly different title in this version!): https://bookshop.org/a/15544/9780810944572
Next, if you feel like it might just be time to disappear underground for a while, page through Stephen Halliday’s richly illustrated history of sewers. The New York Times calls it “absorbing.” https://bookshop.org/a/15544/9780262043342 #WorldToiletDay
