This is a strong entry in the series that features Stink Moody, Judy's seven and three quarter year old younger brother. The Moody family has won tickets to a family sleepover at the aquarium, so Mom, Dad, Judy, Stink, and friends Sophie and Webster are off on an adventure.The aquarium is actually sort of the star of this book and the author does a wonderful job of making the aquarium exciting as she moves the kids from exhibit to exhibit during a scavenger hunt. Stink is nuts for sharks, of course, but we learn a lot about all of the exhibits, especially jellyfish and the like. The creatures are described exceptionally well and a wealth of information is slipped in along with the general hijinks. This ends up being a "learning-is-fun" exercise as well as a funny read.And make no mistake, all of the trademark Stink Moody funny business is here - jokes, puns, funny observations, some teasing, some pretty sly throwaway lines from the adults, and that just slightly manic flavor that marks this age group and their funny bones.On the upside, there is not too much sibling teasing in this outing. I know that's par for the course, and probably hardly registers with kids who have brothers and sisters, and serves as a real eye-opener for only children, but I have to admit that I like my sibling conflict light and in small doses, and that's what you get here. Judy isn't really much of a presence in this book, and Stink basically just gets to racket around with his pals in a cool place. (There is a Bloody Mary the vampire squid story told at the sleepover "campfire" that freaks the kids out a little, but it is handled well and their creeps are explained away early on with laughs all around, so I wouldn't expect it to upset young readers.
