World of Poo is a fictional story by Miss Felicity Beedle, inspired by young Sam Vimes` enthusiasm, and set on Discworld

Geoffrey, a young lad from a well-to-do family in The Shires is sent to his Grand-ma`s city home in Ankh-Morpork. It is the first time he has been there and he wonders at the Least Gate entry into the city, and sees for the first time members of the City Watch.

He is welcomed by his grand-ma, and has a room to himself. He is impressed by the modern plumbing in the house. On his first day there, in the garden, a bird poops on his head. That`s lucky says Just Plain Humphrey Twaddle , the gardener, who goes on to explain more about the qualities of poo. Geoffrey decides that if its lucky he ought to save it. He leaves to harden on the window sill. Helping Humphrey he gets some chicken poo from the eggs the hens have laid and some worm poo fom the compost heap. In the kitchen he finds some mouse poo and adds that to his collection. Taking his puppy to the park he meets Louis, an urchin who is a collector of the pure; the white dog poo which is beloved by tanners. His Grand-ma offers to help him create a museum of poo.
Next day Emma offers to take him around the city. They cross the Ankh Bridge with its quaint shops and houses, where Geoffrey witnesses how the toilets empty directly into the river from above. They stop at a shop selling Jolly Sailor tobacco and Gumptions Snuff. The buy some sweets off Mr Thwaites, the shopkeeper, and Geoffrey gets some of his parrot`s poo too.  Then its on to Morphic Street where Geoffrey spends the rest of the day at the Sunshine Sanctuary for Sick Dragons.

Grand-ma has arranged a special treat. They cross the river by the Brass Bridge this time and go round the back of the Patricians Palace. She has arranged with Lord Vetinari to be shown around the menagerie by Mr Monsoon, the head keeper. Geoffrey will collect poo off all the animals.

First off is the Hermit Elephants from Howondaland. A wheelbarrow is needed here. There are animals from all over Discworld. The Counting Camel comes from Djelibeybi who have their cage bars like abacusses, the Coathanger Elk from Nothingfjord, Chameleon Alligators from the swamps of Genua, and Bouncing Kangaroos from Fourecks. I shall skip the acrobatic meerkats as they just annoy. There are even Bashful Pandas from the Agatean Empire. All were presents from visiting diplomats.

Before he leaves the Palace Geoffrey meets the Re-Director of the trout. B.S. Johnson`s trout lake is 150 yards long but only a few inches wide. The trout need help in turning around at each end. Geoffrey has poo samples from each species carefully bagged and bucketed.

B.S. Johnson was renowned for inventing something he did not start
to invent, or to just bend the rules of physics to achieve his aims - sort of.
It is doubtful that little of his output was fit for purpose

A new day, and Geoffrey is going to have lunch with Sir Charles Lavatory, master of the Guild of Plumbers and Dunnikin Divers. He is the man who produced the magnificent gazunder back in Nonsuch Street. Geoffrey`s day is made when he meets another guest, Sir Harry King, king of the Golden River. Harry is going to the Guild of Heralds straight afterwards and will take Geoffrey to see the hippos and the wyvern. He gets some poo off both and also the morpork owl.

Harry King paid for an advert in the sheet margin of the
Merchants Guild $2 in the days before his knighthood.

The Guild of Heralds three penny
stamp is nicknamed the Y-Front
for obvious reasons.

The Hippos and the Morpork performed a balancing
act when they posed for city`s coat of arms
as shown on the AMPO 2p stamp.
This blue edition is from the Year of the Signifying Frog.

Harry takes the lad down the Ankh in his private boat and he gives his a tour of the recycling works. Harry has got rich by charging people to take away their waste and selling on to those who need it. Harry takes his philosophy to his meals, preferring leftovers with a dollop of Merkle and Stingbats brown sauce.
The day over, Geoffrey is taken back to the house on Nonsuch St, and his mother is there with a brand new baby sister. Geoffrey wants to help change her!
