About The Book

Yuck creates an amazingly gross invention and tries to outlast his sister on an outdoor adventure in these two delightfully disgusting tales.

In “Yuck’s Robotic Bottom,” Yuck is determined to win first prize for the best invention in school. He’s got gross gadgets galore and a disgusting robot to help him. All he needs now is a stinky plan to blow away his rivals…

In “Yuck’s Wild Weekend,” Yuck and his sister, Polly, are both going camping in the garden—but neither wants the other one there. With creepy crawlies, smelly snakes, and a grizzly bear on the loose, who will survive the longest in the wild?
