Mr Stink stank. He also stunk. And if it was correct English to say he stinked, then he stinked as well.... Chloe sees Mr Stink every day, but she’s never spoken to him - which isn’t surprising, because he’s a tramp and he stinks. But there’s more to Mr Stink than meets the eye (or nose), and before she knows it, Chloe has an unusual new friend hiding in her garden shed.

Very very short
What disappointed you about The Slightly Annoying Elephant?
Why would anybody want to purchase a story that only lasts 8 minutes!? To be fair this was my fault for not checking the time length but really, what is the point of a story that by the time I sat down with a glass of wine in my hand there were shouts of 'mummy! The story's stopped!'
Has The Slightly Annoying Elephant put you off other books in this genre?
No, but don't like wasting money on something that only lasts a few minutes!
