Overview
Meet Stink Moody, Judy Moody's younger brother, in this ten-book paperback collection bursting with science facts, silly experiments, and everyday kid adventures. Perfect for newly independent readers and reluctant readers alike, each short, illustrated chapter book follows Stink as he tackles a new obsession, from shrinking fears to slime mold to sleeping with sharks.

This box set is a fantastic way to introduce young readers to a full, self-contained series in one convenient paperback bundle.
About the Books
The Stink series follows Stink Moody, the pint-sized, endlessly curious younger brother of the beloved Judy Moody, as he investigates the world one wacky obsession at a time. Across these ten paperback books, Stink tackles everything from his own height and a mysteriously unbreakable jawbreaker to a class guinea pig road trip, a shark-filled aquarium sleepover, and a squishy, ever-growing slime mold science project. Each short, illustrated chapter book is written in an easy, conversational style that's ideal for kids transitioning from early readers to longer chapter books, and every story is sprinkled with Stink's own comic strips, wacky facts, and playful asides that keep pages turning. Young readers will recognize themselves in Stink's mix of confidence and worry, his loyalty to friends and family, and his relentless enthusiasm for learning something new, whether it's about the solar system, guinea pigs, or the grossest facts he can find. Because the stories are grounded in real science topics — space, biology, animal habits, and more — they double as a gentle, funny introduction to nonfiction ideas wrapped inside genuinely entertaining fiction. The short chapters, large type, and frequent illustrations make this collection especially friendly for reluctant readers and for kids who want the satisfaction of finishing a whole book in one sitting. Parents and teachers who already know Judy Moody will find Stink just as charming in his own right, and newcomers will quickly understand why this spin-off has become a favorite for classroom libraries, road trips, and bedtime reading alike.
