Super Fudge

Super Fudge by Judy Blume

Reviewed by M.M.C.


Fudge’s parents said they were going to have a baby girl. Fudge got mad because he would not be the baby any more. At all! Then they said they were going to move to Princeton N.J. for a year! Peter and Fudge did not want to move. Peter threatened to run away. He was going to go to Jimmy Fargo’s. Then he said he would go to his Grandmas. But she was in Boston. My favorite character was Fudge because he asks a lot of weird things, like do you eat worms? Fudge recently started kindergarten. He gets a really mean teacher. She is mean because she does not call him Fudge. She calls him Farley Drexel! Fudge is so bad he goes to a nicer teacher. She says you must be as sweet as your name. He is. His teachers name is Mrs. Ziff.  Since Fudge's grades are good he gets a pet bird. This story has a lot more action then Tales of a Fourth grade nothing. If you like humor you're sure to like this story. I give this book a five star rating!!

A Bad Case of the Stripes

 Bad Case of Stripes

A Bad Case Of The Stripes by David Shannon
Reviewed by E.K.


This book was about a girl named Camilla Cream who loves lama beans, but she is afraid to show everyone she likes it. She thinks they will make fun of her. I didn’t like how people made fun of her, and called her mean names. They also made her stripes turn into different colors, and designs. My favorite character in this book was the old lady because she made her bad case of stripes go away by giving her favorite thing… Lama beans! You should read this book because it tells you to be yourself and not to be afraid to show your personality. I give this book a good four star rating!
