3.0 out of 5 stars
Cute., January 21, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Malodorous Mess (Paperback)
Following on the heals (??) of Captain Underpants, The Stink Squad uses the humor most loved by middle readers and the much-beloved path of adventure.
Cute, witty writing: The snotmobile runs on a secret ingredient "discovered during a head cold;" the action takes place in the "OlFactory."
So why only 3 stars?
How, in 2004 did the female writer come up with an adventure story with only male main characters? You've got the boy Gilbreath, his uncle, Dr. Sniffen Shroeder, and a dog (also male) named "Whiff." On page 4 the first female shows up, an adult secretary to Dr. Shroeder, who whimpers to the nine year old boy that he must save her. I honestly don't know what happened after that. I get the idea.
