The Farties' Blog

Bubblicious!

Hi, it’s Sandy, (The Fartie Lady) again. This time I am writing about another character in my book “Meet The Farties”. As you may recall my first book has six characters. These characters are “Mr. Fart Bart— Not Me Mama—Freddy Fartie–Timmy Tootie–Billy Bubbles and Princess Pop.  I wrote about Mr. Bart Fart in my last post.   This time, we’re going to introduce you to Billy Bubbles!

How Billy Bubbles Came To Be…..This little “Butt” is just so cute, and adorable, you will just love him!

Have you ever heard your Mommy or Daddy say  “was that a little bubble?” when they hear a little noise coming from you?

I know when my kids were young, I would say “was that a little bubble, honey”? Now I say the same thing to my grandchildren. Everyone would giggle and off they would go, laughing their little heads off and being silly about their “BUBBLES”.

As I continued developing this little “BUTT” family, I knew there had to be a little “Butt” named Billy Bubbles. The name came to me easily enough “but” what is Billy Bubbles all about, I wondered…?

• What does he look like?
• What does he like to do?
• What is his personality?

So many questions for such a little “BUTT”.  And the creation of little Billy Bubbles began.  As it turned out, I did not have far to look, as my little grandson “Josh” is so much like “Billy Bubbles”.

Does that not look like Billy Bubbles to you? So adorable with such a big smile and glasses; how cute is he?

Billy Bubbles’ favorite colour is yellow and so it is for “Josh” – in fact, that was one of Josh’s first words….. “ellow” .  Both like to chew bubble gum and blow big, big, bubbles!  Now this is where things hit a fork in the road, as  “Billy Bubbles” likes refried beans and Josh says “not a chance”!  Josh sticks to his bran flakes for that extra punch of nutrition. Just stand back when they have finished their refried beans and bran flakes!  It’s not very pretty.

Every Friday night at Billy Bubbles’ home, it’s movie night with the family. They love to watch the movie “Silent but Deadly”.  You all know what that’s all about!  Maybe you know someone that is silent and deadly too!

Oh well, Billy Bubbles’ Mama -would you like to know her name?  Would you?  You will……. “but” not yet! She goes and gets out all the goodies (black licorice) and they all have a rooting- hooting- tooting good time on movie night.

My philosophy to each character and Billy Bubbles….

I wanted Billy Bubbles to be a… roly, poly, round, squeezable little “BUTT” -  a happy go lucky little “BUTT” with big glasses and a baby curl on top.   Billy Bubbles loves to say “Hello” so he lets bubbles go everywhere he goes. Sometimes Billy Bubbles blows so many bubbles, we can’t find him “but” we can hear him!

Billy Bubbles’ likes to wear his favorite little yellow rain coat when it is raining; not cats and dogs ”but” farties and tooties. Would you like to see little Billy Bubbles in a yellow rain bubble coat?  It will be very small. Maybe in one of the up and coming series of “Meet the Farties”   What do you think?

I try very hard to stay with the philosophy of cute not crude! Billy Bubbles is just so cute, everyone wants to take him home!

Yes, there is so much more to this book than a little family of “BUTTS” and their gas. They become part of your family. Can you think of anyone that reminds you of Billy Bubbles?

In closing…
