Book Description

Age Level: 7 and up | Grade Level: 2 and up | Series: Adventures of Uncle Stinky

Uncle Stinky is a superhero with a heart of gold-and a stink to high heaven! And it's a good thing that a superhero lives in the little town of Hootenholler, because there's always someone who needs saving from the Dreadful Plague of Embarrassment. But despite smelling like onions and old fish, Stinky saves the day in this uproarious blend of text and comic book-style illustrations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious!!, April 4, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The Good, the Bad, and the Smelly (Adventures of Uncle Stinky) (Paperback)

This book is the most original children's book I've read in years. Everything about it is funny, especially all of the little pictures and captions throughout the book. I would say this book is better than the Captain Underpants series. If you like him, you'll definitely like Uncle Stinky!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious!, March 28, 2004

This review is from: The Good, the Bad, and the Smelly (Adventures of Uncle Stinky) (Hardcover)

Hooray for Uncle Stinky! He's a genuine, down to earth hero (even if he is smelly) whose mission in life is protecting the citizens of Hootenholler from danger. With his trusty sidekicks, he's always on the lookout for trouble and is always ready to take it on. The humor in this book will make adults, as well as kids, laugh out loud. I love the illustrations! Be sure to read all the copy in them or you'll miss some gems. The "love your neighbor" message is plain to see and the stories are great fun.

My 9 year old son loves all 3 of the Uncle Stinky books! He's read them all dozens of times & they are the first books he grabs when he's packing his favorite books for a trip! He keeps hoping a 4th book will be written!
