Mr Stink

by David Walliams

Ages 8–11 Reading age 9 Novel Set in everyday life funnymoving

Chloe hides a homeless man and his dog in the garden shed without telling her mother, who is standing for parliament on cleaning up the town.

A story about children and families, funny and moving in tone. We would put it with children of 8–11, and at a reading age of about 9 for reading alone.

Worth knowing before you buy

None of this makes it a bad book — often the opposite. It is here so you can decide whether it is right for your child now or in a year or two.

If they like this, try these

Chosen by matching age, reading age, tone and subject — not by what is selling.

Or let them write their own.

Nothing gets a child reading like a story they invented themselves. Your child plans the characters and the plot, and we write, illustrate and print it as a real book with their name on the cover as the author.
