Reviewed by Roy T. James for Readers' FavoriteThe Commode Companion by Rolf C. Margenau is a collection of photographs termed..as an excellent bathroom companion. I felt bad, thinking he was belittling his work, then I read that his decision was in line with the scientific finding; laughter cures constipation. Now I agree with the author for this book is hilarious.I enjoyed every page of this book...This is an excellent companion, whether in the bathroom or outside, and can hold one's interest for a long time, since the pictures tell stories and the short captions speak volumes. Read more From the Back Cover The author was raised by feral chipmunks in the wilds of northern Connecticut,realized at an early age that small children and furry animals considered himan equal, attended a college that had a bull dog as its mascot, practiced law withcorporate wolves and tigers as clients, and retired to write books about plants,animals and people. He lives in northwestern New Jersey surrounded by hiswife, many dogs, a flock of wild turkeys, deer, coyotes, numerous other furrycreatures, and a large black bear who is unduly fond of his bird feeders. He isnow working on a book about what happens in the near future when congresstries to save our bankrupt country by selling off the national parks.Fills a burning need for a book about talking animals. Finally, a photographer/writer with the skill and wit to discover what creatures really think gives us the answers. Bravo!-Writer's mother.Wicked good pictures; fair to middlin' words.Does well in our outhouse.-Pierre Lafitte, Maine LobstermanThis awful photo book discriminates against frogs!Steal it; don't buy it.-Anonymous amphibianLaughed until tears rolled from my crocodile eyes.-"Jaws" PrendergastAmusing little book that, unfortunately, fails to grasp the dichotomous nature of conceptualizing auditory responses from sub-human species. If a butterfly could talk, I doubt it would speak English. It would speak butterfly, which the author has failed to translate properly or support his derivations. This is a flawed attempt, which, nevertheless, rises to risibility.-Dorothy Plankton, Ph. D.

The origins of the name should be apparent. It's the perfect book for those times when you're looking for entertainment in bite-sized bits. The just shy of 100 pictures and Margenau's suggested captions should do the trick for a few visits to the room down the hall. How many will depend on how regular you are. I found the captions humorous and amusing. For the Kindle edition, the book works fine on an eink based ereader, but the pictures are much better in color. Use your tablet computer or smartphone for best results.The book description calls this book “interactive.” What this is getting at, explained more fully in the book's introduction, is the author invites readers to propose alternative captions. The intent is to update the book from time to time based on these suggestions.**Originally written for "Books and Pals" book blog. May have received a free review copy. ** ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful pictures, fun to read! *by F***E on October 19, 2015* The Commode Companion is a fun little book that I have to admit I chose because of the title and the cover picture. I’m a sucker for a cute cat picture every time. The author has used some very beautiful pictures of animals and added funny captions to them, much like is often seen on Facebook. Keep in mind that a few of the captions are a bit explicit so the book probably shouldn’t be left around for young kids to read even though the pictures would certainly be enticing to them. At the beginning the author provides information about how readers can participate in future versions of the book by making their own captions and sending them in to maybe be chosen to be added to the book. I think this is a great idea and adds to the fun of the book. The pictures are absolutely beautiful and the captions, for the most part, are amusing. This is a cute book to have for the coffee table or, as the title suggest, the bathroom. I read my version on my ereader which worked well but a printed version would be better, in my opinion. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not my usual type of book but... *by D***Y on November 23, 2015* This is not my usual type of book to review, but the author wrote such funny emails asking me to review his book that I just couldn’t resist. Besides, he promised I didn’t need much time to read the book either. I was out of excuses.First of all, don’t skip over the Author’s Note. It displays Margenau’s dry wit. The rest of the book was cute and funny. It does exactly what it sets out to do – entertain readers otherwise occupied. I received a free ebook from the writer and unfortunately the ebook misses its mark. This type of book – a companion for bathroom visits – needs to be a paperback book so that you can set it next to the toilet. I also found the pictures a bit one-dimensional as my kindle is black and white. That said – I would totally recommend this book if you’re thinking about grabbing the paperback copy. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/16489704-the-commode-companion-exposing-the-innermost-thoughts-of-animals-birds](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/16489704-the-commode-companion-exposing-the-innermost-thoughts-of-animals-birds) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
