Walter the Farting Dog is the title character of a series of five children's books written by William Kotzwinkle and Glenn Murray, and illustrated by Audrey Colman. The first book was published in 2001. By 2011, the first book had reported sales of more than 1.4 million hardcover copies, and the series had grown to five titles. The book has a hidden spider on every page except one, which has puzzled readers. Audrey Colman, the illustrator, received hundreds of emails asking why that one spider was missing on the page where Walter was wolfing down an entire box of Fart-Free Biskwee dog biscuits(the phonetic pronunciation of “Biskwee”being a nod to the illustrator’s birthplace of Montréal, Québec), to which she usually answered,”The spider‘s in the cupboard on that page” before admitting she’d forgotten to add it that time. There is also a stuffed Walter plush toy in two sizes, which includes sound effects, made by Merrymakers in Oakland, California.
