Book Description
A million times worse than octopus armpits Or sniffing an elephant trunk Is the galling, appalling, truly enthralling Glorious stink of a skunk!

In this hilarious book, readers will find skunks that are surprisingly useful -- their smelly spray flavors everything from sundaes to salad dressing and even helps water the lawn. And their furry black-and-white coats make everything from comfy slippers to classy tuxedos! Fans of Slugs and Bugs! will delight in this newest celebration of a creepy creature.
