About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is resisting their hygiene routine or when you want to transform a mundane chore into a playful, imaginative adventure. This installment of the popular series uses humor and a stinky monster to turn the concept of bath time into a high-stakes superhero mission, making it an excellent tool for kids who find self-care boring or intimidating. The story follows Princess Magnolia and her band of masked heroes as they face a literal 'stink monster' that cannot be defeated with traditional combat. To win the day, they must use soap, water, and teamwork. It is a lighthearted way to discuss responsibility and the importance of staying clean, all while maintaining the series' signature blend of subverting princess stereotypes and celebrating brave, capable young heroes.
