Stink needs a sport, fast! Can his alter-ego, Shark Hammersmash, wrestle a win at thumb wars? Or will a perfect karate kick lead him to victory?
Stink Moody, family brain, brings home a report card that isn’t perfect? Yikes! Time for him to get into fighting shape and beat back that U for Unsatisfactory in gym! A scan of the sports channel leads to a knock-out find: world-class thumb wrestling, with tricky moves like Snake in the Grass and Santa’s Little Helper (no equipment needed, save for a tiny terrifying mask to sit on your thumb). But when Mom and Dad are not wowed, Stink gets another idea: he’ll kick and punch his way to a yellow belt with the help of a Dragon Master, a seeing-eye Moose, and a mind as still as a pond. Can you say Crouching Tiger, Hidden Thumb? Hee-ya! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Megan McDonald is the creator of the popular and award-winning Judy Moody and Stink series. She is also the author of three Sisters Club stories and many other books for children. She lives in Sebastopol, California.
Peter H. Reynolds is the illustrator of the Judy Moody and Stink books and the author-illustrator of The Dot, Ish, So Few of Me, The North Star, and Rose’s Garden. He lives in Dedham, Massachusetts.
In the latest chapter book about the irrepressible young grade-schooler, Stink is proud of his report card with all the Os for Outstanding, but there is one U for Unsatisfactory; he flunked Phys. Ed. So he looks for a sport he likes and tries thumb wrestling, but it is the karate class that’s the best fit. As always, the wordplay is part of the fun in this series (“Fizz-Ed”) and so are the comic-style graphics. Readers will enjoy the karate details, both the action and the calming meditation, as well as the story’s climax, when Stink beats the bully. Grades 2-4. --Hazel Rochman
