BOOK NAME: Fudge-a-Mania
AUTHOR:
Judy Blume

When Peter Hatcher and his family want to go on vacation, Peter does not expect it to be right next to his enemy, Sheila Tubman. Not only were their houses near each other, but when he got to Maine, Peter found out that their houses were CONNECTED! How would he survive living next to the entire Tubman family? His family was enough to have to deal with!

In Maine, Peter meets Mrs. A and Mitzi, who he later finds out are wife and daughter of Big Apfel (only the greatest baseball player ever)! Peter goes through many weird times, including the time where his little brother Fudge’s bird escapes, and he has to go find it. Fudge was so weird. So weird, that he even wished to marry Sheila! But at the end of the book, Sheila and Fudge don’t get married, someone else does!

I really liked this book. I think Judy Blume is a great author. She has a great sense of humor. My favorite character in the book was Mitzi. She doesn’t have such a big part in the storyline, but she’s just so cute! I wish I had a little sister just like her! I also liked the way Judy Blume portrays Fudge’s character. It’s such a typical five year old! I could think of many five year olds who are just like Fudge. Just as annoying, and just as crazy! Fudge-a-mania is a great book! All the characters are great!

This book is about two families that live in New York City, the Hatchers and Tubmans. The parents from each family like each other but the kids from each family do NOT like each other. The parents of the families decide to go to Maine for the summer. The kids think they are going live in houses next door to each other, like neighbors. This would be bad enough, but they actually have to live in the SAME house for the summer.  

The main person in the story is Peter. He is the oldest kid in the Hatcher family and Fudge (not his real name) is the youngest. Sheila is the youngest kid in the Tubman family. Sheila and Peter are enemies. This makes for a lot of trouble during summer vacation.  What makes it even harder is that Peter and Sheila are both given the job of taking care of Fudge during the summer and Fudge is a lot of work! 

But it goes from bad to worse when Grandpa Tubman (Sheila’s grandpa) and Grandma Hatcher (Peter and Fudge’s grandma) decide to get married. This means Peter and Sheila, although they are sworn enemies, are now related and in the same family. But they made a promise that even though they are related, they will always hate each other!

I really liked this book. I tried to read it all at one time, but my parents told me I had stop reading and turn off my light since it was a school night!

SuperFudge

Superfudge
is a fun book about a regular a boy named Peter and his brother named
Fudge.  Fudge is going into kindergarten but he’s a little out of
control.  Peter absolutely wants to have nothing to do with Fudge but
when he finds out that their mom is going to have another baby things
only get worse.  On top of that, they are planning on moving for a year
out of the city.  Peter tries to handle moving, two crazy siblings and
staying cool all at the same time, but things tend to get a little
hectic!  
     I LOVED reading Superfudge!  It was so much
fun to read all the wacky things that Fudge ends up doing.  I am
definitely planning on reading the sequels to it.  It was an easy read
so I could take a break from all of the other much harder books I have
for school.  The book reminds me of my own life in a way that I am in
6th grade and Peter is too.  My youngest brother Brady is SO the Fudge
of the family.  He and Fudge are like wild childs.  We really do have a
lot in common with them.
     I rate this a FIVE out of FIVE!  It
is a great read for people who like humorous fictional types of books
or Judy Blume’s others in the series.  If you have a ‘Wild Child’ in
the family, tell me about it.
