Synopsis
A boy with an amazing sense of smell becomes the "Family Nose" when his parents and siblings all come down with colds and cannot smell disgusting and dangerous odors around ...
School Library Journal
Gr 1-3-Peter has an amazing sense of smell, which comes in handy when his whole family has a cold and can't detect gas from the stove, bad orange juice, and decaying flowers. When Grandma comes over with her special chicken soup, everyone recovers, except Peter, who goes from being the "Family Nose" to the "Family Stuffed Nose." Cartoon illustrations in bright, bold colors and a sense of humor keep this slightly forced story moving along. "Did you know?" boxes are tucked randomly throughout to give some additional facts about the sense of smell.-Nancy A.
