Whenever I could, I told my kids a story when I put them to bed. The elder son was very easy, I could re-tell the story of the three little pigs, The Big bad Wolf . Any old story and my older son was happy.
The younger son was a different kettle of fish. . . "I HEARD THAT ONE! " he would say. or even worse at the end of hard told story complete with gesticulations and the best voice imitations I could manage . . He would merely say "HMMMPP".
I set out to find a story that he could not have heard.
A story that he could not 'hhhmmmpph' . . .
So I created 'Aramat the Farten Hound',
a story for little boys that like rude things,
secrets and words like 'poo' and 'fart' because for some
little boys these words were the funniest thing in story land and stories without them were simply not worth listening to.
