Die zweite, höchst originelle, rührende, verdrehte und heitere Kindergeschichte von David Walliams, wunderschön illustriert von Quentin Blake: Mr. Stink stinkt. Sogar ganz fürchterlich. Chloe sieht Mr. Stink täglich aber sie hat noch nie mit ihm gesprochen. Was nicht überrascht, denn Mr. Stink ist ein Landstreicher und er stinkt. Aber ehe sie sich versieht, hat Chloe einen neuen, ungewöhnlichen Freund, der sich ihn ihrem Gartenhaus versteckt. Und als sie versucht, Mr. Stink geheim zu halten und gleichzeitig ihr Vater versucht, ein eigenes Geheimnis zu hüten, ist die Bühne bereitet für eine Familienauseinandersetzung epischen Ausmasses. Aber da ist noch eine Person mit einem außergewöhnlichen Geheimnis - Mr. Stink selbst!
