Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid by Megan Mcdonald, illustrated by Peter Reynolds

Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid is a fun book for kids just starting out on chapter books. Stink is the nickname for James Moody (brother to Judy Moody--who has her own series of books). Stink is upset because he is too short and he isn't growing (and having to put up with teasing from his big sister, Judy). The chapters each work well as individual stories. And the chapters are separated by fun comics in which Stink is able to imagine himself with superpowers.
