Book Synopsis
An instant New York Times bestseller! Goosebumps creator R.L. Stine teams up with the pop-culture phenomenon Garbage Pail Kids for Welcome to Smellville, the first book in this hysterical middle-grade series with illustrations by Jeff Zapata and Joe Simko. Welcome to the town of Smellville, where 10 kids all live in a big tumbledown house and have as much fun as they possibly can. People may think that they're gross and weird and strange, but they're not bad kids--they just don't know any better. In this hilarious illustrated series from bestselling author R.L. Stine, the Garbage Pail Kids--from Adam Bomb to Brainy Janey--get into mischief at their middle school, all while battling bullies and their archenemies, Penny and Parker Perfect. These all-new illustrated stories are sure to amuse, entertain, and blow away readers of all ages. More from the Garbage Pail Kids Series:Thrills and Chills

My son really liked it! I think it was equal parts weird and funny. Perfect for a 10yr old boy. He was hoping there was a sequel!

My son loves this book. It definitely captures the grossness of the old Garbage Pail Kids with some modern twists
