Voiced by Lee, the audio version features an engaging soundscape to bring the book to life and give parents and children an immersive read-along experience. Whilst the main character Wizz begins the story quite relaxed, it\u2019s not long before he is bowled over by smelly footy boots, rotting fish and a skunk. As a touching tribute, Lee has dedicated this edition to his fianc\u00e9e Rebecca Harding who, in a funny twist, inspired the stinky theme!<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate Wizz\u2019s stinky new adventure, by simply listening to the interactive audio version, kids can discover the code word for a special competition to win a visit from Andy Lee to read his book at their school!<\/p>\n<p>Andy Lee said: \u201cI sincerely hope no one listens to this for the sake of a blue monster called Wizz.
