Complete with a glossary, What's That Smell is a colorful, entertaining and fact-filled book easily accessible for early and reluctant readers. Kids who love gross stuff and kids who love stinky stuff will be especially excited to read this book. 

Short chapters cover the difference between a human's sense of smell and a dog's, super stinky animals and plants, stinky odors caused by bacteria on/in the human body, and of course farts (gas). There's even a Stinky Sock Experiment for young scientists to try. 

Illlustrations, color pictures, speech and thought bubbles are well-thought out and help deliver the content for struggling readers. Super Gross: What's That Smell is a solid non-fiction read. The Super Gross series consists of three books thus far. 

Recommended grade 1 and up. This book would be a solid and fun book in beginning science and health classes.
