SMELLY SMELLY SNEAKERS

Nasty Stinky Sneakers If you like mystery books you will like Nasty Stinky Sneakers by Eve Bunting. This is an awesome book. Colin has spent weeks making his shoes smell really bad for a contest. If he wins he will get three pairs of slam Dunker shoes. One for his little sister Amy, one for him self, and one for his best friend Webster. But now after weeks of working toward stinky sneakers, they are mising. Will he find them. I think this book is really good because it is funny, and my socks have smelt really bad.

Very fun read for newly independent readers

My 7 yr old really enjoyed this book. Light mystery with nothing scary but lots of fun is right where he's at. I appreciate that this book is also well written. I feel it's important for kids to read books with good sentence structure and interesting vocabulary, and this book has it. (There are some "series" and other books out there with fun titles and stories, but poor writing.)
