"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.
As Chloe struggles to keep Mr Stink a secret, and her dad tries to hide a secret of his own, the stage is set for an epic family confrontation. But there's one other person with an extraordinary secret – Mr Stink himself…

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I listen to this book every night, I love it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5this is the best book id ever read exxelent and amazing.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I read this book to my 9 year old son. Not being UK based some of the culture elements needed explaining, but I found it also very political for such a young age group, with the mother in the book running to be an MP, and talk of policies etc. I felt that an adult would have understood the humour in the digs made at current politics in these elements much better than a child (as I did).
I also found some digressions off the main story that were distracting - at one point a 'ven diagram' and a graph were used to make a point, from the author to the reader, but I felt it took away from the story and made no sense to my nine year old. I wondered at the point of this.
I found some of the issues also a bit serious for my 9 year old, maybe my 12 year old could have related better, but bullying and feeling that a parent doesn't love or support you are tough topics for a child to deal with. However, I did like the ending with how Mr Stink brought Chloe (the main character) and her family back together at the end. And how Chloe made such a connection to him.
A mixture of a book. I wondered if David Walliams actor status has made his books popular. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Mr Stink is the most pungent man in all of Great Britain, a homeless tramp who hangs out on a park bench downtown. Chloe is a 12 year old girl who is not popular, either at school or at home, who decides to make an effort to talk with and befriend Mr Stink.Mr Stink turns out to have exceptionally good manners, in spite of his appalling lack of hygiene. In time, Chloe invites Mr Stink to live in her family's shed. Chloe's mother meanwhile, is running for an MP seat on a platform that includes, among other things, banning homeless people from everywhere, because they area nuisance and they stink.(Spoiler: Between Chloe and Mr Stink, Chloe's horrible mother is fully redeemed by the end of the book. The Prime Minister of England however, is not.)Very Roald Dahl-like humor.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is about a very smelly tramp that people called Mr Stink. People were nice to him; they through coins at his feet and sometimes dropped a scrap of food for the Duchess, Mr Stink's dog, or something like that. But they were never really friendly with him - no one stopped for a chat. Until Chloe did, anyway.
Chloe soon made friends with Mr Stink. She saw him pull out shiny cutlery from his dirty tweed jacket and soon got very suspicious. She thought he looked like he had such a great story to tell, and imagined him as a stowaway pirate or something - but she wasn't even close.
Chloe's mother and poisonous sister, Annabelle, were nightmares. They were so poshy-poshy-posh-posh that they got so incredibly hateful. Annabelle always wanted Chloe in trouble, and so did Mother. Only Father was nice to poor Chloe.
What should she do? Will Mr Stink help her to a new life of happiness...or will these hateful days stay the same?
This book was absolutely awesome. It was so funny I had to tell every single bit of it to my parents, as every single bit of it was funny. I loved this book so much I didn't want to put it down at bedtime, even if I was fantastically tired. I had a tinge of excitement whenever I had to stop at a chapter and wait until the next day to read it. Sometimes I even got to sleep dreaming of Chloe and Mr Stink! - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Not as good as i hoped, I actually preferred the tv version. However, the closing chapters are quite lovely.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It is very apt that Quentin Blake illustrated this book: Walliams' prose is very reminiscent of Dahl's. It is a cracking book about snobbishness and friendship and, like all good children's books, contains a smattering of jokes for adults. I am not a fan of Walliams on the TV, so I am amazed that he can produce such a kids book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Mr Stink By David Walliams Mr Stink is a great book about friendship.Its about a girl named Chloe who wasn't that popular.She became friends with a tramp named Mr Stink who sits on a local bench all day.Becoming friend with Mr Stink changed her life.In my opinion i think that this book has a story about friendship and families and i even chuckle a couple of times :D
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The book Mr Stink is about a girl named Chloe, who is not popular and met a tramp. Mr Stink the tramp became friends with Chloe and lived in her house. Chloe's parents disagrees that Mr Stink was going to live with them because he is very stinky. Until they found out that the tramp was actually a Lord. As soon possible Chloe's parents offered Mr Stink to live with them but he denied. Mr Stink said that he wanted to wonder around the world, and so he left.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A Great read for Kids & Adults alike, had me laughing out loud many times :)
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A delightful read about a girl, Chloe, who befriends a tramp who really, really smells. Chloe, a troubled girl due to bullying from her mum and school friends, sees more than a smelly tramp, she sees MR Stink as a confidante. Their friendship encourages others not to be so judgemental as they soon warm to Mr Stink and his commonsense approach to the daily troubles that cause grief.
