Stinky Seymour is a monster who lives in the swamp. The dirty,
mucky, smelly, gooey swamp. He lives with his pet toad,
Wartbelly, and really loves his pickled onions.
What he doesn't love is the town on the other side of the
swamp, because towns have - kids! Kids like to eat apples
(yuck!) and take baths (double yuck!), and they don't like his
dirty, mucky, smelly, gooey swamp.
And that's just the way Stinky likes it.
But then Nick, a new kid from the town, builds a tree house in
Stinky's swamp. Stinky is not about to let this go on, so he
hatches a plan that will get the kid out of his swamp.
What follows is a fun adventure where Stinky and Nick both
learn a thing or two - Stinky about the type of kids who love
swamps, and toads, and ghosts, and Nick about making new
friends.
The Raw Junior books are a wonderful introduction to graphic
novels for kids, and STINKY is a great addition to the line. The
full-color illustrations fit perfectly with the story, and the text is
simple enough for younger readers to read on their own or with
a parent. A really fun book!
