Book Reviews of I Stink!
Book Review: I Stink Doesn't Stink!
Summary: 5 Stars
My son absolutely adores this book, and since he is only 3 he can't read it, but he has it nearly memorized. The visuals are very bright and inviting. The words are easy to follow. I found I Stink on one of our normal trips to the library, and every visit thereafter he wanted to check out I Stink, so I bought it. I also bought other books by the McMullans, and he's enjoyed those as well.Book Review: I Stink delights the grandsons and their friends!
Summary: 5 Stars
We first heard I Stink read at the Brooklyn Library on 9th Avenue last year during the children's hour. All the children there that day loved it. We checked out the book and brought it home and read it again that afternoon to the the other family in our building with pre-preschoolers. During the time we had it checked out we read it over and over. Soon my 3 year old grandson was reading the many of the words and saying the sounds having memorized the story. He wrote "I Stink" with stick on letters in the bathtub.
We ordered the book for him through Amazon for Christmas and it is a favorite with him and his brother who is now 20 months old. If your boys (and girls, too)like watching the garbage trucks come by and pick up the trash and garbage, they will love this story with so many "sounds," etc. It also helps children to build an understanding of how services work in the city and elsewhere and how important those services are to all of us no matter where we live, but especially in the city.

Book Review: I Stink--the Story of a City Garbage Truck
Summary: 5 Stars
Pre-schoolers love this nitty-gritty story of a big-city garbage truck and the work he does for us all night long while we sleep. The trash our truck collects forms a very grungy and hilarious alphabet--apple cores, banana peels, all the way down to ziti with zucchini shown in an old plastic bag. In between can be found dirty diapers, puppy poo and stinky sneakers. Brightly colored child-friendly illustrations predominate, and the well-chosen words make children laugh out loud: when the truck shows what life would be like without him, we see a mountain of trash with the words, "It's trash-o-rama, baby!" I have read this book to many pre-school boys, all of whom adored it. I can't speak for girls, but I suspect it might present a welcome break from all those princesses.
