Chronicle In Pursuance Of Books Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid (Stink #1)
I very much enjoyed Megan McDonald's Stink...The Incredible Shrinking Kid. The story followed the trials and tribulations of second-grader, James Moody... also known as "Stinky". Stinky is the shortest kid in room 2D, and to make matters worse, he is apparently SHRINKING! When the class is instructed to write a paper discussing their favorite president on Presidents' Day, Stinky of course chooses James Madison, the fourth, and the shortest president of the United States of America. Stinky's family helps to mend his worries with a special surprise, which leaves him realizing that growing takes time and is a long process... but it WILL happen! This book includes extremely creative illustrations and funny periodic cartoon strips, done by Peter H. Reynolds, both of which help the reader to understand the text, and get a stronger feel for Stinky's personality and feelings. This book would best be used in a small group setting, or as a class read aloud. All students would feel a connection to the characters in the story, and would love to follow stinky and his well known sister, Judy Moody on their everyday antics! I would recommend this book to any transitional reader, and any elementary school teacher!Particularize Books To Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid (Stink #1)

this book is so funny because he (stink) has always wished to be a little tiny person but then one morning he is as tiny as a little ant but after a while regrets to be tiny and would want to become as big as a normal person.This book is fine, apart from having American things like garbage disposals and Presidents Day in it, which my kids don't understand. Not the book's fault, of course!
This book is about a boy named Stink who is really short, his friends call him short as well as his sister.I liked this book because it was funny.I recommend this book to people who are short.
Read this with my daughter and we really enjoyed it. Stink is the brother of Judy Moody, and he has his own series. With thinking he is shrinking, and the trouble he had with Newton, the newt from school, Stink is not having a good week. Judy tries to make him feel better with a President's Day party for his favourite president, James Madison. Very fun book, and we enjoyed looking at the comics at the end of each chapter.
1.5 starsJudy Moody is a horrible sister! I only enjoyed the cute cartoon adventures Stink draws, and how encouraging his teacher is.

I picked this up today because I am trying to find things for my reluctant and lower-level readers. This may appeal to them, but it won't help them with their need to use mature vocabulary, mature thoughts, etc.However, if they will enjoy it and keep reading, then that's half the battle and I'm satisfied.It is a goofy and quick and would be good for kids ages 7-10 (or similar reading level).
