It's research time in Calvin's class, and they have been charged with completing a primary research project with his partner Julio. What should they research? They decided to research stinky items and an attempt to remedy Streak's (Calvin's dog) horrible dog breath.
What ensues is lots of fun...and lots of stinky things!
What I Thought:
Another great Calvin Coconut book! He is such a lovable fourth grader and I have a great time discovering his world! (And he lives in Hawaii...that doesn't hurt things!)
This book is laugh-out-loud funny and at times you'll shudder at the stinky things Calvin encounters...dog breath, dog droppings, and even a sewage pipe. (As he watches the toilet get switched out!) Calvin is also dealing with everyday problems...a teenage friend who stays with them and helps watch Calvin and his sister, a little sister, classmates, divorced parents...
This is a delightful book that kids will eat up! Go Calvin!
Highly recommended.
