The Stinky Cheese Man has been a favorite of mine for years. I'm always amazed at the number of students who want to check it out of our school library after I've read it. The author has a gift for taking something so familiar and creating something so bizarre and entertaining from it. The kooky illustrations only serve to enhance the totally off-beat nature of the book.

This is a book for parents as well as children. You will find it a delightful use of fairy tales, on a different slant. We truly enjoyed this book and laughed and laughed as we read. I really believe that children of any age will enjoy this book!

You got your Berenstein Bears, you got your endless parade of Official Adaptation of the Newest Disney Marketing Ploy, and now, thankfully, the Stinky Cheese Man. I finally get to read my five-year old a book that keeps us both interested, and leads to the kinds of questions I like answering.Try and explain the concept of a Stinky Cheese Man to a kid sometime, odds are you just end up giggling. The stories are funnier than most Dilbert books and the illustrations beat the heck out of the basics offered in most "children's books". Filled with short stories that are themselves filled with real live art, this is as cool as a kids book can get. I bought a copy for my bookshelf too
