Cover of "Feelings are Like Farts" upon a lilac background. Text above the cover reads "god forbid a girl has feelings*" and text below the cover reads "*and a little bit of flatulence"

Feelings and farts are facts of life.

We all have them! And we have to live with them, even when they’re inconvenient, unpleasant, or surprising.

They might come out of nowhere! It’s definitely not a good idea to hold them in for too long.

So how can we accept them?

Cover of "The Most Boring Book Ever" by Brandon Sanderson upon a maroon background. Text above the cover reads "god forbid a boy has a boring day*" and text below the cover reads "*WAIT IS THAT A DRAGON" with looking eyes emoji.

Don’t peek behind the cover!

Don’t look at the pictures! And definitely don’t follow along with the rip-roaring adventure the boy is experiencing.

Wait, is that a dragon? A marauding airship?
