The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales is a book of spoof fairy tales written by Jon Scieszka and illustrated by Lane Smith, and first published in 1992.The narrator, Jack (of "and the Beanstalk" fame) relates to the reader extremely silly takes on a number of classic fairy tales, including "The Princess and the Bowling Ball," "The Tortoise and the Hair" and more. But Jack's production is plagued with problems from the very beginning... literally. Before the book even begins, the bossy Little Red Hen shows up on the front paper and demands Jack tell her story (she's also on the back of the book, complaining about the UPC and wondering "Who is this ISBN guy?"). The table of contents goes missing, only to end up as the punch-line to one of the stories. Another story gets left out of the book by accident, forcing Jack to put it on the dust jacket of a later anniversary printing of the book to make up for it. And when Jack finally gets around to telling his story, the Giant shows up and threatens him.Still, it's all in good fun, even if "Fairly Stupid" really is the best way to describe these tales. | |

| The Stinky Cheese Man / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: At the end, when the Little Red Hen is going off on another tirade about how no one helped her bake the bread or tell her story, she then asks: "Who thinks they're going to help me EAT the BREAD?" The Giant does when her shouting wakes him up. With her in between the slices. | |

The Cameo | |
| The Stinky Cheese Man / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Alexander T. Wolf from The True Story of the Three Little Pigs plays the part of The Big Bad Wolf in "Little Red Running Shorts". Or at least he would have, if he hadn't left in a huff with his co-star after Jack spoiled their entire story. In "Giant Story", the illustration of Aesop from Squids Will be Squids (by the same authors) can be seen. | |

Wrong Genre Savvy | |
| The Stinky Cheese Man / int_20a14df0 | comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: The Stinky Cheese Man acts as though he's in a straight retelling of The Gingerbread Man, oblivious to the fact that no one can put up with his unappetizing smell. Ditto for the Really Ugly Duckling, who thinks he's in a normal retelling of The Ugly Duckling story and that he too is fated to grow up to be a swan. He's not. He really is an ugly duckling, and he grows up to be an ugly duck. | |

Noodle Incident | |
| The Stinky Cheese Man / int_3c0a4666 | comment |
Noodle Incident: The "Boy Who Cried Cow Patty" story, shown falling off of the Table of Contents, isn't actually in the book. We can assume, based upon its title, that it's supposed to be a parody of The Boy Who Cried Wolf. It is, however, on the back of the dust jacket for the book's 10th anniversary edition. | |

Stylistic Suck: The Giant's Story, which is literally made of pieces cut out ransom-note-style from other fairy tales and makes pretty much no sense. The accompanying image, which is assembled of picture clippings, is just as bizarre. | |

Downer Ending | |
| The Stinky Cheese Man / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: "Chicken Licken" ends with everyone being squashed by the book's missing table of contents. In "The Really Ugly Duckling", the Really Ugly Duckling grows up to just be "a really ugly duck". In "Cinderumpelstiltskin", not only does Cinderella not go to the ball and meet Prince Charming (thanks to Rumpelstiltskin showing up instead of the Fairy Godmother), but her stepmother and stepsisters give her an even more embarrassing name. In "The Stinky Cheese Man", the eponymous Stinky Cheese Man falls in the river and dissolves after he's thrown from the back of the fox. | |

Overly Long Gag | |
| The Stinky Cheese Man / int_a188ac4b | comment |
Overly-Long Gag: In "Jack's Story," the following passage fills up three-quarters of the page with the font getting progressively smaller and smaller and smaller until it hits the end of the page. The "ending" to "The Tortoise and the Hair" was this as well. The last page for the story consists entirely of the same two sentences repeating ad nauseam until there's no space left. | |

Cutting the Knot: In "The Princess and the Bowling Ball", every princess who stays at the king's and queen's castle fails the pea test since they can't feel the pea under the hundred mattresses. When the prince meets the girl of his dreams, he solves the problem by replacing the pea with a bowling ball. His parents are satisfied and they get married, and they live happily, if not honestly, ever after. | |

No Ending | |
| The Stinky Cheese Man / int_ea2e9f2d | comment |
