“One morning, Sam woke up with a grumble in her belly and gas that was too smelly.”

So begins Sam Can’t Poop, a delightfully entertaining and simultaneously helpful picture book penned by Samantha Jeffries and Carly Nguyen. Inspired by Samantha’s untimely—and somewhat infamous—exit from Bachelor in Paradise and backed by the writing duo’s combined professional experience in the medical field, this book follows Sam as she tries to find a cure for her aching tummy.

While Sam Can’t Poop is sure to get kids—as well as their Bachelor-loving parents—laughing, the story ends with useful and healthy advice for getting things moving—literally! When young readers see that veggies have done the trick for Sam, they’re sure to remember her story next time they, like Sam, just can’t poop.
