Stink-O-Pedia: Super Stink-Y Stuff From A to Zzzzz [Paperback]

Megan McDonald (Author), Peter H. Reynolds (Illustrator)

Book Description

Age Level: 5 and up | Grade Level: K and up | Series: Stink

Study up on Stink-isms from A to Z! A super-funny compendium of wacky
facts with compulsive appeal for fans of Stink and Judy Moody alike.

Where can you view the world’s oldest ham? Who holds the record for the world’s loudest burp? The answers to these and many, many more essential questions can be found in Stink-O-Pedia — just the sort of reference book that Stink Moody, who reads encyclopedias in his spare time, might make up himself. From J-for-Jawbreaker (and how long it would take an average frog to digest one), to P-for-Professional Smeller (and other strange but true careers), to Y-for-Yeti (why not?), this volume contains enough amazing stuff to keep readers saying "No way!" for a googolplex* of years. At the back of the book, facts are cross-referenced with related Stink and Judy Moody titles.

* See the letter Z-for-Zero!

My 7-year-old son is a HUGE Stink fan! He has read all the books, and is waiting for another to be published. So, when I found this one, I ordered it for him. It is VERY funny. When he's reading it, he wants to stop every minute and tell me something funny from the book. It even lists a website that lets you hear the different sounds that a guinea pig (Stink's pet) makes! This book is LOTS of fun!

I am pretty disappointed in the book Stink-O-Pedia. I was hoping for more activities that correlated with the Stink series. When I purchased the Judy Moody Way not Boring book of stuff to do the book is full of activites, there was a sticker page, and all activities correlated to the series, Judy Moody.

This book was for my son, but my daughters also got a chuckle out of seeing it. My son enjoyed reading it and I think we will purchase another in the collection. A great book to have just for when they feel bored and want something to skim read.
