Toot-toot!

There's a new book out designed to help parents explain to their children how gas passes through the body and it's become so popular, it now counts certain A-list moms and dads as fans.

Does the Queen Fart? is authored by Heather Gordon, a mom whose goal was to create an open conversation with young kids about how their bodies work. In the story, a young boy named Valentine gets a lesson in gastrointestinal health by none other than the Queen herself when she stops by for tea.

"Raising two kids, I have learned a lot about teaching body positivity," Gordon explains. "It always struck me as odd that we have these magical bodies that can walk, talk, think and breathe and yet when our very complex digestive system is functioning, it's often treated as a small crime. Does the Queen Fart? encourages young readers to celebrate our bodies in all their glory."

Drew Barrymore, David Beckham and Victoria Beckham must feel the same way because they're among several celebs with copies of the tome. We can't help but wonder if it helped them broach the delicate topic of breaking wind with their little ones!

After all, everyone farts, don't they?
