The top secret bathroom reader for kids only, is a hit! It gives us information that you could need in your every day life, either if it's in school (studying Rome), or thinking of familiar names that come to your mind. Any ideas htat pop in your mind, you will find in this book! It talks about Cesar Ritz, a swiss businessman who owned facy hotels, later in 1934 Nabisco introduced a cracker that they named after the fanciest thing they could think of: Ritz. It also talks about Roman Gladiators, farting jokes, riddles that keep your mind alive and active, amazing coincidences and etc. My favortie one is when Willard Lovell had locked herself out of her house, and was struggling trying to get in, but then the post man arrived and gave her a letter. Her brother had been staying with her for a few weeks and had forgotten to return the spare key! How do you think she got in now?

I like this book because it has interesting facts. All though I didn't like the layout of the text. The font was too fancy for me and it looked kind of messy.
The rest of the book was okay.
