Reading Comprehension Questions
by Megan McDonald
6 curated questions
James "Stink" Moody, the energetic second-grade younger brother of Judy Moody, becomes worried that he is shrinking after his older sister, Judy, measures him and finds he is a quarter inch shorter. He tries various humorous methods to appear taller, such as wearing vertical stripes and spiking his hair. Throughout the story, Stink also takes home his class newt, Newton, leading to some mishaps, and researches his hero, the shortest U.S. president, James Madison, for a Presidents' Day report. The book explores themes of body acceptance, self-confidence, and sibling relationships, often incorporating Stink's own imaginative comic strips.
