Goodreads Synopsis:
Something smells like trouble! Can five princess heroes and one Goat Avenger pool their talents to vanquish a monstrous stink?
The Princess in Black is in a very stinky situation. A foul cloud is plaguing the goat pasture, and it smells worse than a pile of dirty diapers or a trash can on a hot summer day. But every time the Princess in Black and her friend the Goat Avenger manage to get rid of the odor, they accidentally blow it to another kingdom! Other masked heroes and their trusty companions show up to help, but how do you battle a stench when your ninja moves fail? Fans with a nose for slapstick will be tickled to see the six stalwart friends join their wits to take on an impossibly beastly stink.
Review:
While this is the 7th book in the Princess in Black series, you can pick any of these books up and still get a great story without following the series. In this installment, there is a very stinky smell wafting all around the land and the heroes must come together to fix the stinky problem.
The text of this book is a great vocabulary builder for younger readers and it is accompanied by wonderful images that are colorful throughout. The chapters are shorter so that younger readers can read through slowly but still feel accomplished and the overall story is fun and cute and all the heroes are a lot of fun to look at in the images. Each takes on a persona like the things they enjoy and that is a lot of fun. This book also features diverse characters which is a wonderful thing. Overall I think younger readers will love this chapter book. It is shorter and full of images, it also has a great lesson about needing to bathe... otherwise you become the stinky monster.
