Brilliant, zany and totally subversive. Babette Cole captures the grotesquely ghastly things that Infants and Lower Juniors find most appealing. The Smelly Book ranges from a dedication to the 'smelliest dog in the world', through the gunge at the bottom of dustbins to letting off stinkbombs in class. Tremendously popular and a real winner when trying to woo reluctant readers.
