Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid

I love this book. I read it to all my 2nd graders at school along with Stink's sister's book (Judy Moody). The kids love it and it is very entertaining.

I love purchasing books for my grandchildren. I purchased this for my three year old grandson. He loves a little story. The pictures are engaging. He sits and he listens to the whole story, so in my book that's a big win.

These books are great. It's been difficult getting my son away from "informational" type books. He started reading one of these, and he's on the 5th book now. They are fun, easy to read, enjoyable topics, and he learns a lot from them. Each book has factual information in it that we always look up and it's true. He gets excited about what he's going to learn next. In this particular book, he learned that you actually shrink a teeny tiny bit by the end of the day from the effects of gravity. GREAT series.

When I bought this book for my 3rd grader, I thought it would be similar to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series that he loved. However, as he was reading, he started asking me questions about James Madison, then Dolly Madison, then specific questions about their time in the White House. Puzzled, I asked him what he was reading. When I heard it was this book, I was astonished and delighted!!! He's not only enjoying the book, he's learning too!! I am definitely buying the rest of this series!!!

As many have posted, trying to find a chapter book that isn't too hard or too easy and is interesting can be quite the challenge! With Stink he sat down to read it (after a little prodding) and proceeded to finish it in one sitting and ask for more. High praise indeed! My son is a tad stubborn (he doesn't want to read or like his older brother's books...sigh, anyone want some Magic Treehouse books???) and loves a book with humor. He is 8 years old, in the second grade, and is above average in his reading (don't all mothers think their children are above average?? But that is what his teacher says). He is also reading the Wimpy Kids books and Captain Underpants as well as all things Star Wars (age appropriate). In any case, this book did get a pretty fast thumbs up from my youngest...and is definitely worth a try! JTG

Very cute kid’s book. Nice gift for elementary age kids.

Para un niño bilingüe tiene algunas palabras que no son parte de su vocabulario, pero en general es bastante entretenido. Lo compré para mis hijos de 8 años

The simplest of all reviews. While waiting patiently for the next installment of "How to Train Your Dragon" my son and I needed a new read. He's small for his age, so Stink seemed like a good fit. About 20minutes into the read he says, "It's good, but not at good as Roscoe" (referring to Roscoe Riles Rules). I had to agree.

Meu Deus, amei este livro. Quero comprar mais. Por favor. Estou aguardando o estoque.

My son loved this book. Great for newer chapter book readers! It mixes fiction with fun and interesting facts and my son couldn't put it down.

Chosen for friend's boys aged 8-9 and they all adored it.

多聴多読マガジン 2008年 10月号 [雑誌 ]に部分収録されていたものを聞いて、気に入ったので購入しました。 私の英語は中級なので、スピードが速いこのシリーズ(YL_2.2-2.6 137WPM)は結構手ごわいです。一度目は殆ど聞き取れません。でも、Nancy Cartwrightの朗読がとても楽しくて、「え？一体何が起こったの？なに？なに？知りた〜い！(>_<)」と何度でも聞きたくなります。そして、聞く度に少しずつ状況がわかってきて、そうなるとStinkがかわいくてかわいくてたまらなくなくなってきます。Nancy Cartwrightの声と読み方で（ここが重要）、フレーズも頭に入ってしまいます。
