Have you met Judy Moody's brother, Stink? It's spring break, and Stink is faced with a difficult choice: hang out at home with his sister, Judy, or become a Shakespeare Sprite with his friend Sophie of the Elves. Hanged be! When Sophie tells Stink that there will be swordplay and cursing at Shakespeare camp, his choice is made. But wait! How now? The eager young thespian hadn't counted on Riley Rottenberger being a Sprite, too. And he positively had not counted on being the only boy! Fie upon't!
What Parents need to know from Common Sense Media about the Stink Series
Parents need to know that the Stink series is a spin-off of the Judy Moody series, written in the same light, funny style. Stink, Judy's little brother, feels like he's never going to grow, and Judy constantly reminds him that he's the shortest kid in his second-grade class. The series starts with Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid, first published in 2013, and each book follows Stink, often with best friends Webster and Sophie by his side, on an adventure -- from letter writing for free candy to sleepovers to a disastrous weekend with the class pet. When the friends get in trouble, it's resolved quickly, and hurt feelings never last long. There's realistic teasing between siblings, but Stink and Judy always support each other when it counts. The word choices are fun: A bit of advanced vocabulary is repeated throughout each book, and Stink and his friends use a lot of goofy words. Young readers will enjoy the comic strip-style illustrations between chapters.
