Stink: The
Incredible Shrinking Kid
Shrink,
shrank, shrunk!
Every
morning, Judy Moody measures Stink and it's always the same: three feet, eight
inches tall. Stink feels like even the class newt is growing faster than he is.
Then, one day, the ruler reads -- can it be? -- three feet, seven and three quarters inches! Is Stink shrinking? He tries everything to
look like he’s growing, but wearing up-and-down stripes and spiking his hair
aren't fooling anyone into thinking he's taller. If only he could ask James
Madison -- Stink's hero, and the shortest person ever to serve as President of
the United States.
Stink
and the Incredible Super-Galactic Jawbreaker
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
and the World's Worst Super-Stinky Sneakers
When Stink Moody's second-grade class goes on a
field trip to the Gross-Me-Out exhibit at the science museum, he learns that
his very own nose has amazing sniffing abilities and that some people have real
jobs sniffing stuff for NASA! Soon Stink is engrossed in toilet water, corpse
flowers, and all things smelly. But is his fetid footwear foul enough to win a
Golden Clothespin Award? Loyal fans will be holding their breath for Stink's
latest outrageous solo adventure.
Stink and
the Great Guinea Pig Express
When three guinea
pigs from the local pet shop make a great escape, Stink Moody and his friends
Webster and Sophie spring into action. Ta-da! The Fantastic Fur Friends round
up the little hairballs and bring them safely back to Mrs. Birdwistle’s
shop, where they discover -- oohla- la! -- guinea pig pandemonium! Time for the Great Guinea Pig
Giveaway! Stink and company hit the road aboard the Squeals on Wheels Express
in a crazy quest to fi nd good homes for 101
squealing, whistling, chirping, wiggly piggies. FUR-eaky!
Stink: Solar
System Superhero
Look!
Up in the sky! Is it a falling leaf ?
A speck of dust? A speeding
mosquito?
No, it’s Stink Moody, Solar System Superhero!
When
Stink learns that Pluto has flunked out of the Milky Way for being too shrimpy, he feels like he might just explode with a Big
Bang. Stink has no choice but to take a stand for the sake of little planets
(and little people) everywhere. Will he be smart enough to defeat a panel of
big-shot scientists? Will he be strong enough to beat know-it-all Riley Rottenberger and her "Team KPB"? Will he succeed
in rescuing Pluto from a fate worse than being swallowed by a black hole? Start
the countdown for a funny (and very informative) out-of-this-world
adventure--and prepare to have your universe rocked!
Stink and the Ultimate Thumb-Wrestling Smackdown
Stink Moody, family brain, brings home a report card that
isn’t perfect? Yikes! Time for him to get into fighting shape and beat back
that U for Unsatisfactory in gym! A scan of the sports channel leads to a
knock-out find: world-class thumb wrestling, with tricky moves like Snake in
the Grass and Santa’s Little Helper (no equipment needed, save for a tiny
terrifying mask to sit on your thumb). But when Mom and Dad are not wowed,
Stink gets another idea: he’ll kick and punch his way to a yellow belt with the
help of a Dragon Master, a seeing-eye Moose, and a mind as still as a pond. Can
you say Crouching Tiger, Hidden Thumb? Hee-ya! Ha!
Ha! Ha!
Stink and the Midnight Zombie Walk
Guts! Brains! Eyeballs! There’s only one week
before the new book in the Nightmare on Zombie Street series comes out. Of corpse Stink will be
first in line at the Blue Frog Bookstore to buy his copy and join the town’s
Midnight Zombie Walk! Until then, Stink and his friends keep busy making
ketchup-stained zombie costumes, trying to raise money to buy the book, and
racking up points for Virginia Dare School’s race to one million minutes of
reading. But with all that talk about the undead, Zink
— that is, Stink — starts to wonder: is he being hunted by zombies? He does have a very delicious
— er, superb — brain, after all. Readers will just
have to open ze book and zee! Mwa-ha-ha-ha!
Stink and the Freaky Frog Freakout
Stink may be super smart, and Stink may be uber clever, but he’s been in the Polliwog swim class frog-ever and he still
can’t bear to put his face in the water. Why would he want a geyser up his
nose, on purpose? But then something weird happens: Stink starts to see frogs
everywhere — in the locker room, in his boot, in the bathtub. And when a freaky blue frog licks
his arm, his froggy senses
start tingling! He has an urge to slurp up raisins (that look like flies). He
can’t wait to play in the rain and mud. He’s a wiz at identifying frog calls.
And he has become very interested in the local frog population. Could it be
that Stink is turning into . . . the amazing Stink-Frog, fighter of slime? Pree-eep!
Craw-awk!
Stink and the Shark Sleepover
When Stink’s parents win tickets for the whole family to
sleep over at the aquarium (along with Stink’s two best friends), it sounds
like a science freak’s dream come true. Stink loves the sea-creature scavenger
hunt (Bat ray! Brain coral!), the jellyfish light show, and the shiver of sand
tiger sharks with razor-sharp teeth. And of course Stink is nuts about gross
stuff, but after some spooky stories around the virtual campfire, can he manage
to fall asleep thinking about the eating habits of the vampire squid? Especially Bloody Mary, the mutant, glowing Frankensquid
that’s supposed to be on the prowl?
