Stanky and the Straw Man! 🧹🥕

Panic is in the air at Granny Gigglesnort's cottage! 🧙‍♀️ Her magical vegetable patch is destroyed by cheeky birds, and her new Potion of Flatulence is ruined! 😤 Granny scolds her patchwork assistant, Stanky, and builds a terrifying scarecrow to guard the patch.

But Granny's words hurt Stanky's feelings, making him think she believes the scarecrow is better than him at everything! 💔 Upset, Stanky accidentally spills a stinky potion and runs away! 💨

The Snaggletonians search everywhere, but Stanky is nowhere to be found. Granny feels terrible and misses her best helper. Can she find Stanky and explain what she really meant? 🤔

Join Granny Gigglesnort on a heartwarming journey to find Stanky and learn an important lesson about listening and understanding!
