Goosebumps creator R. L. Stine teams up with the pop-culture phenomenon Garbage Pail Kids for a first-ever GPK illustrated middle-grade series Welcome to the town of Smellville, where nine 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 new series from bestselling author R. L. Stine, the Garbage Pail Kids--from Adam Bomb to Brainy Janie--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. Bonus: includes four exclusive Garbage Pail Kids stickers!

This book was nothing but nostalgia for me. I grew up with GPK cards and stickers and watching cartoons. I loved them. And RL Stein has taken me right back to that time. There were many times I felt the book was repetitive. For example, each time the narrator changed it changed with almost the same wording. And then we would hear the same story told from a different view. About the only thing I didn‘t really like was the mom character.

aperfectmjk I so want to read this! 😆 4y
Graciouswarriorprincess I just ordered this and arriving on Wednesday. 4y

It‘s officially October. That means I can start #screamathon2020 #scarathlon2020, and the #cyoreadathon.

My goals for @Sace readathon is 1 novel, 1 audiobook, 10 picture books, and 2 GN. For a total of 24 hours. We shall see how I do. I have time.

Sace Omigosh. I haven't seen the Garbage Pail Kids in forever! 4y
LibrarianRyan @Sace they are making a resurgence. r. l. stein is writing the new series. 4y
LitStephanie I love that you are reading Garbage Pail Kids for a scary readathon. I collected their cards instead of baseball cards as a kid. 4y

Look what I found at BN last night. I‘m gonna need it. I‘m QUARANTINED. Josh has a sinus infection or a cold. Today was his regular day to go to the doctor but they wouldn‘t let him in because he had a tad high temp and a runny nose. They mandated a COVID test. Because of his job he‘s has to quarantine until a clear test and because I live and sleep with the guy work sent me home to quarantine tooo. Ugggghhhhhh👇🏻

LibrarianRyan I had all this secret stuff planned die work tomorrow for Halloween that I had to hand off. Uggghhhh. As head of social committee I have to start Booing and of course my boo was at home. 👿. I have my #allhallowsreadswap package ready to send but not until a clear test. It just keeps piling on. But on the 🌞 side of things I will have plenty of time to start #scareathon2020 and #screamathlon2020. 🧟‍♀️😷😑😑😳😤😤🧟‍♀️ 4y
wanderinglynn I love the cover of Skyhunter. 💜 4y
wanderinglynn Hope y‘all are cleared soon. That must be terribly frustrating. 💚 4y

LibrarianRyan @wanderinglynn yes!! I was amazed BN had it. They have not had new release books on release day for months. 4y
LibrarianRyan @wanderinglynn yes. And found out it has to come out of my side leave. I have to fill out special paperwork and in 4 or 5 weeks they willl determine if my case was justified to get my time back. But even then I only get 2/3s of it back as I wasn‘t the one tested. Not exactly happy right now. But Josh is better. He was chasing the dog with the drill a few hours ago. (Not like a horror movie they were playing). 4y
Bookzombie I hope you are both okay. So sorry about how you have to use your time. LOL about Josh chasing the dog with a drill. 4y
ShelleyBooksie Hope you are both ok! 4y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Even in the time of Covid people are getting screwed out of their leave. Hope it's all good. 4y
