Ten-year-old villager Bartholomew Johnson is cursed, and so are the people around him.

Why? He was born that way.

You see, young Bart Johnson suffers from excess, uncontrollable fart gas, and his diet of dried kelp and mushroom stew is not helping matters.

All of his friends except one, the loyal Stan Leaf, have abandoned him. They laugh at him and make jokes. Josh, the bully, loves to pick on him and make up mean nicknames.

His teachers make him sit inside a glass cube during class to prevent his fart gas from disrupting the learning of the other students.

His life is sad.

But, when his fourth grade field trip is announced, will he finally discover a place where he can fart in peace?

Read the Diary of a Farting Villager to find out how young Bart learns to accept himself for who he is and make the most of his ... talents.
