Praise for Animals Brag About Their Bottoms
"Amazingly stylish ... with humorous charm and elegant illustrations."--The Toronto Star
"Celebrates animal behinds in all their forms...there's not a trace of self-consciousness in this jaunty, no-nonsense exhibition of animal posteriors."--Publishers Weekly
"Light, conversational, and funny; and the painterly patoots are lovely in their texture and shading.... By the end (ha!) we've learned a little about these remarkable creatures."--The Horn Book
"In Saito's delicate renderings, each bottom is distinct and, yes, beautiful."--Kirkus Reviews
Originally published in Japanese by Fukuinkan Shoten Publishers in 2018 as Oshirijiman.
