Walter's family is holding a yard sale, but there are few customers. Walter, farting contentedly near Father, wonders why. When a man offers ten dollars for Walter, Father readily agrees. Walter wonders why. Walter is sad to leave his family behind, but relieved to discover that his new owner is a clown. Walter figures he will help the clown bring joy to children on their birthdays. But the clown has a dastardly plot: he will use Walter's gas to inflate balloons and then pop them to stun guards during bank robberies. Will Walter turn to the dark side? Of course not! He comes out a hero and is reunited with his family by doing what he does best.
"This has the same gross humor as the previous book and even more inventive illustrations, a mix of collage and computer-generated art. Infact, there's so much to see in the pictures, children can look and laugh for hours."

"Walter, with all his gassy baggage, is a breath of fresh air."
