It's Tough Being Little Farties!
Posted in Books, Entertainment on Dec 21st, 2009
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!

I wanted Mr. Fart Bart to be older looking but still very cute and huggable. Like all the other little “Butt” characters now and in the future, I want them to appear adorable and loved by all. Just to let you all know, Mr. Bart Fart is the only Fart word in the book. The reason that I used the fart word was it rhymed with Bart and it suited the story.
I try very hard to stay with the philosophy of cute not crude! There is so much more to this book than a little family of “Butts” and their gas. There is a moral to the story. You can read my first blog post to get more background on how this book came to be and my hopes for its success.

I wanted to create something that would be cute, funny and be enjoyed by many. I also wanted each little book to have a moral or lesson for the children to learn from. With this little book “Meet the Farties”, I have found that everyone – not just children, get a real charge out of “Meet the Farties”. It is my wish that I can spread joy and laughter with my series of “Meet the Farties” books. I have started donating “Meet the Farties” books to the childrens’ wards in hospitals. The nurses are very happy. They say there is nothing children love better than bodily function noises and laughing is one of the best medicines for healing.
If my little book “Meet the Farties” can help people laugh more, it is doing what I had hoped for.
