Japanese kids really got something up their butts: their poo. Seems that primary school kids are embarrassed to do #2 at school, so they hold it in. The Japanese education experts have decided to take matters into their own hands, so to speak, and have printed a series of books to help the youngsters deal with their turtleheads. The books are illustrated with characters that look like poo.
Tinkle tinkle, little tot, get all jammed up if you don’t pop a squat.
