Shit My Kids Say

When you listen to six-year-old Jojo and his four-year-old brother, Miles, discuss the ways of the world, you get a strong and startling reminder that a child's mind has no boundaries. The two boys debate, with great seriousness, everything from African penguins and DNA testing to the earth's rotation, aliens, great white sharks, personal hygiene, astronauts, and the intricacies of car-wash finance. Miles and Jojo's father, Charles Yawson, faithfully recorded many conversations between his two sons over a two-year period, illustrating every exchange with delightfully minimalist paintings. Learn why great whites should be termed "man-biters" rather than "man-eaters" and how ice-cream sprinkles cause nightmares. You'll discover which bathrooms crocodiles should use, why squirrels run from small boys, and why goose poop is as good as gold-as well as other brilliant, silly, and insightful observations only a child can make...and some only a child can understand! The hilarious exchanges and serious conversations between these two brothers reveal the brilliant innocence of childhood. There was a time when we all saw the world as Miles and Jojo do. If we still did, the world would be a better-or at least funnier-place.
