Grabenstein, with illustrations in every chapter from Alex Patrick. Reading has never been so much stinkin' fun!

Review Quotes:
This fifth series installment is pure comedy, with funny text that is not too challenging. Every chapter includes great illustrations that lend the book a graphic novel feeling. ... Young readers who like silliness and stinky feet will enjoy this fractured fairy tale. - School Library Journal
