Candlewick Press (MA) Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid

Chosen for friend's boys aged 8-9 and they all adored it.

My son loved this book. Great for newer chapter book readers! It mixes fiction with fun and interesting facts and my son couldn't put it down.

多聴多読マガジン 2008年 10月号 [雑誌 ]に部分収録されていたものを聞いて、気に入ったので購入しました。私の英語は中級なので、スピードが速いこのシリーズ(YL_2.2-2.6 137WPM)は結構手ごわいです。一度目は殆ど聞き取れません。でも、Nancy Cartwrightの朗読がとても楽しくて、「え？一体何が起こったの？なに？なに？知りた〜い！(>_<)」と何度でも聞きたくなります。そして、聞く度に少しずつ状況がわかってきて、そうなるとStinkがかわいくてかわいくてたまらなくなくなってきます。Nancy Cartwrightの声と読み方で（ここが重要）、フレーズも頭に入ってしまいます。 多聴多読マガジン 2008年 10月号 [雑誌

These books are great. It's been difficult getting my son away from "informational" type books. He started reading one of these, and he's on the 5th book now. They are fun, easy to read, enjoyable topics, and he learns a lot from them. Each book has factual information in it that we always look up and it's true. He gets excited about what he's going to learn next. In this particular book, he learned that you actually shrink a teeny tiny bit by the end of the day from the effects of gravity. GREAT series.

My 7 year old son was instructed to read this book for his 2nd grade class. My son loved it so much, and thought it was very funny. I too read t to ensure he had read it properly & I had to say it was very funny.
