Stink #1: The Incredible Shrinking Kid

Shrink, shrank, shrunk!

Every morning, Judy Moody measures Stink and it's always the same: three feet, eight inches tall. Stink feels like even the class newt is growing faster than he is. Then, one day, the ruler reads—can it be?—three feet, seven and three quarters inches! Is Stink shrinking? He tries everything to look like he's growing, but wearing up-and-down stripes and spiking his hair aren't fooling anyone into thinking he's taller. If only he could ask James Madison—Stink's hero, and the shortest person ever to serve as President of the United States.

In Stink's first solo adventure, his special style comes through loud and strong in a series of very funny, homespun sagas which reflect the familiar voice of a kid who pictures himself with super powers to deal with the travails of everyday life—including the occasional teasing of a bossy big sister!
