Book three in a three book series of health adventures for readers 7-11. Grub is the messiest kid on the block. His hair is one big tangle, his clothes are covered with blotches and stains and his room looks like something exploded in it! It's going to take some drastic action - like an exploration through Mr. Picadilly's mouth or an encounter with giant body bugs - to get him to clean up his act. And Grub will need your help cracking codes, deciphering devious word scrambles and hunting down the stinkies hidden throughout this book!

From the Publisher
We'd like to share some of the positive responses to the Five Kids & A Monkey series that we have received here at the offices of The Creative Attic Inc.:
"(Five Kids & A Monkey books) fill a health void most delightfully and are sure to please the elementary-age student. You have been able to make understandable seemingly difficult topics such as good hygiene, proper nutrition, and infectious diseases. May I congratulate you...on creating a set of books that will be best sellers with students and parents alike." (Shirley M.R. Minster, MS Ed., Director, Home Education & Family Services, Gray, Maine)
"The Five Kids & A Monkey learning adventures are a fun way for young readers to learn serious information. Not only is the lighthearted approach appealing, the humor helps them retain the content longer." (Dottie Bengoian, Educator, Motivational Speaker, Humorist, Fairfield, CT)
"Lurking in every kid is a wish to play detective. When that can be combined with learning about health, this series...is a winner! Parents, teachers and great-grandparents like us can play, too!" (Ross and MaryLou Callaway, "Senior Voices" columnists, The Oakland Press, Pontiac, MI)

We love these books!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Banish the Stinkies: Book 3 (Five Kids & a Monkey) (Paperback)
We have all three of these books and my children (ages 8 and 6) love them! I really enjoyed "Five kids and a monkey Investigate a Vicious Virus". The authors made a difficult subject very easy for children to understand. They want to read them over and over. We can't wait for series 2 to come out.

Fun all the way through - My kids LOVE the title !,
By david.b.hill@snet.net (Norwalk) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Banish the Stinkies: Book 3 (Five Kids & a Monkey) (Paperback)
This book (as with the other two in the Series) grabs my kids attention everytime. The health and hygiene issues are presented in such an enjoyable fashion, that even my youngest remembers the salient points. I recommend the entire series, as well as the optional Study Guides (especially for those other HomeSchoolers out there). Great Fun...hope you all enjoy them as much as we have!

A light & lively look at personal hygiene,
By A Customer
This review is from: Banish the Stinkies: Book 3 (Five Kids & a Monkey) (Paperback)
Magenta, Noodles, Grub and the gang take a "funtastic" journey to learn about being clean and healthy. Kids will love Acid Man and the giant head lice, but they'll also remember to care for their teeth and hair. I know I headed for the shower after reading this one
