Stink and the Great Guinea Pig Express

Stink and the Great Guinea Pig Express by Megan McDonald is about Stink, Sophie, and Webster trying to find new homes for one hundred and one guinea pigs…but how. They think of a great idea to decorate the Squeals on Wheels van and go to different places so people can adopt the guinea pigs. Will they find homes for one hundred and one guinea pigs on the road? You can find out in Stink and the Great Guinea Pig Express.

My favorite part is when one of the guinea pigs named Astro goes into Stink’s closet and ends up wearing his underwear. Astro starts running across the room. I loved this part so much because Stink chases the moving underwear. Then four other guinea pigs escape and run into Stink’s closet too. It was so funny I had to laugh out loud. Stink’s parents don’t know he has five guinea pigs hid under his bed including Astro. Stink realizes that if five are hard to take care of then one hundred and one will be even harder.

At the end of the story Stink learns that it is a big responsibility to have a pet because you have to feed it and clean its cage.  You don’t just do it whenever you want. You have to do it every day. To find out more read Stink and the Great Guinea Pig Express.
