"Like big sister Judy, Stink sports a talent for self-expression. . . . The quick-witted dialogue will keep readers entertained." ? BOOKLIST

When Stink buys a huge jawbreaker that doesn?t break his jaw, he writes to the manufacturer ? and receives 21,280 jawbreakers for his trouble! Soon he?s so obsessed with getting free stuff that he misses an envelope in the mail pile, until his best friend starts looking as mad as a hornet. Thirty-six idioms are sprinkled through the story, inspiring a search that?s more fun than a barrel of monkeys.

Stink rules!

Not only is the book about Judy's younger brother, Stink, but it's written for the younger reader as well. The type is larger and the book is not as long as the Judy Moody books. Again, perfect for a young reader. I love Judy Moody books as the dynamic of kids is really well written. Their behavior, thoughts, the things they say, everything, is well portrayed. In my opinion, far better than Junie B Jones books which uses way more advanced language than kids would use. In this book, Stink finds himself the benefactor of some free goods after writing a letter to the company to complain. This sets off a firestorm that pits Stink against his sister, and his best friend Webster. Good lessons are learned as Stink works through his problems. A great story.

Great book for 3-4th graders

My kids have all Judy Moody and Stink books. They love them, and I know for the fact that they help kids who struggle with reading in 3rd grade. They are easy to read and have a good story, are funny and appealing to that age group. A must have!

My 5 year old loves this character

Our 5 year old doesn't read this on his own yet, but the pictures are frequent enough, and the storyline engaging enough that he loves these "Stink"-y books. We buy them as fast as they come out. While the character is a few years older than our son, the writing is at a level that he clearly loves and understands. Each book teaches a lesson as well. Clean, fun, and simple entertainment in a book value.

Very cute book!

My 10 year old son really liked this book. He finished it in two reading sessions. It's a shame that it was such a short book. He highly recommends it for a short read.

Fun book!

My son is only 4, but he really loves these stories!! He feels like such a big boy reading longer stories with less pictures. We have a great time reading and laughing at the things that happen to Stink!
