Quick Summary
If you're looking for a book that'll make storytime seriously silly, this is it Mr. Messy throws a dinner party for his pals, and every single page has scratch-and-sniff patches that actually work (seriously, they smell like the food on the page). It's one of those rare books where kids can actually interact with the story, which makes it perfect for younger readers who struggle to sit still or anyone who loves anything gross and funny. The sentences are short and simple (only 216 words total), so early readers can tackle it themselves, but the sensory element keeps even bigger kids entertained. Parents should know this is pure silly fun with no scary parts just a messy guy, messy food, and messy friends, which is exactly what the title promises. If your kiddevour books like "The Monster at the End of This Book" or anything with fold-out pages and surprises, they'll absolutely adore this one.
