A laugh-out-loud collection of traditional tales full of whiff, slime and pong for the delight of readers young and old.
Get ready to hold your nose. Here are eight stupendously whiffy, oozy and rip-roaring traditional tales, retold with extra stink and slime in this smelly yet surprisingly charming collection. Perfect for independent readers or for sharing a giggly moment at story time, these tales will spark a smile at any age. Packed with colour illustrations, jokes and speech bubbles to appeal to even the most reluctant reader. From dragon dung and stinky socks to a legendary fart from 'The 1001 Nights', discover fairy tales you wish you'd always known and old favourites in a new, much funnier, light.
Lara has been learning how to grow a book since 2016, following a degree in English and Italian at Oxford and teaching jobs in Italy and Myanmar. From explaining how economics works, to inventing boredom-busting activities, to telling a good dragon yarn, she's enjoyed every minute of the job.
