Shrimp-o!
Runtsville!
Shorty Pants!
Stink was short. Short, shorter, shortest. Short as an inchworm.
Short as a… stinkbug!
Stink was the shortest one in the Moody family (except for Mouse,
the cat.) The shortest second grader in Class 2D. Probably the shortest
human being in the whole world, including Alaska and Hawaii.
Every morning, Judy measures Stink, and it’s always the same:
three feet, eight inches tall. Even the class newt is growing faster
than he is.
Then one day, the ruler reads three feet seven and three-quarters
inches!
Can it be? Shrink, Shrank, Shrunk. Is Stink shrinking?
