...is on a mission.
 Roll the ball of poo home.

Everyone wants to know what Steve is up to on his journey home. The elephant, giraffe, and warthog, among others, ask the same thing, "Why are you rolling that ball of poo?

The lion wants to know why Steve uses his back legs to roll the poo.

The baboon asks how he finds his way.  

                       
It's a disgusting job, but somebody has got to do it.

All along his trip home, Steve teaches the other animals about his job and how it helps them and the environment. It's a fascinating look into one of the world's most interesting insects. And you might find yourself laughing along with the spotted hyena.

You and your child will love Steve's adventure, because of the brilliant illustrations and all the fantastic facts. 

Bonus: Dung Beetle Jokes at the end and on the back of the new dust jacket! They're delightful.
