Summary: Superfudge, by Judy Blume
Review: "Superfudge," by Judy Blume, is a great book. I have read the book Superfudge many times before, and time after time it makes me laugh. Reading about Peter and his relationship with Fudge, makes me think about how we both can relate in some stuff. Peter is a fifth grader and Fudge is a four year old little boy. Peter hates how Fudge is always getting in his way. He thinks that everything would have been better with out him. And when his parents give him the surprise that they are going to have another baby, Peter reacts quite in hatred against the baby and his parents. He decides to run away, but he knows there is no where to go. then later on when the baby is born he knows that he really loves his little siblings. Fudge, can pretty much ruin his live. Just like me, sometimes we just can't stand them, but then at the end we realize how much we really do care about them. I really enjoyed reading this book.How a small four year old can easily ruin a fifth graders life. Judy Blume doea a great job.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Couldn't be better!
Review: "Superfudge" is definetly my favorite book of all time! No criticism! I love the stories about Daniel who doesn't eat anything with oniens or lima beans! One of the best parts is when Fudge calls the teacher "Rat Face" and climbs on top of the cupboard. Congratulations Judy Blume! I am looking forward to seeing more books about Fudge on the market soon! Annie Crowley (age 11)

Summary: Book Review
Review: (...)
Judy Blume's Superfudge, a great children's book full of morals and family values centers on the life of a typical fifth-grade boy in New York. Blume shows how moving away from the town a boy loves can affect his life. This book was banned for several reasons, but primarily for immorality. I do not think this book should be banned because most children have no conception of the adult humor that caused the book to be banned. As a child, I could not comprehend the adult humor in this book. Judy Blume does a good job of sending out the right message for every person that reads this wonderful book.
When I read this book as a third grader, I found it hilarious. Although I read a lot of Judy Blume's books as a child, I do not recall being savvy enough to understand the adult humor in them. After reading the book again as a college student, I could comprehend the adult humor that I missed as a child. I did not know that "My mother's the one who likes kissing. That's why she moved to Vermont" had anything to do with this child's mother having an affair (...). I did not even know what an affair was. I found this quote to be funny as an adult. Reading this book as a child, I learned morals and family values, and reading as an adult I had some good laughs because this book is not only for kids. Superfudge is a great book, and I would recommend it to anybody--adults as well as children.

Summary: Super Fudge
Review: (...)Have you ever been so mad at your little brother you just want to leave, get out of the house? Peter has. Fudge, Peter's younger brother gets Peter into a lot of trouble. And, just when Peter thought it couldn't get any worse Peter's mom and dad told Peter they were having another baby. Peter thought, "another Fudge"! And that's when things really started changing. After Tootsie was born Peter's mom and dad told Peter they were going to move to New Jersey. When Fudge started saying big words, his mom and dad found out he could go to kindergarten a year early because he was so ready. On only the first day of school Fudge was already getting into trouble. Peter had made a few friends, but missed his old best friend from New York. As you can see the conflict in this story is Peter vs. Fudge. The theme is even if you're mad at your little brother and things just aren't working out, soon they will. You should read Super Fudge and see how things work out at the end. I give this book five stars because it was great and it had a lot of funny things in it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Gotta Love Judy Blume
Review: After reading "Superfudge" for the second time, the book took me back when I read it for the first time and I remembered how much I love Judy Blume's books. When I first read this and other books by Blume, I was in elementary, during the time which I was beginning to relate to her books. "Superfudge," of course is a book that speaks of a boy who has a younger brother named "Fudge." This book relates to many boys who have to deal with becoming a role model to their younger siblings, even though, like Peter in the previous book "Tales of a Forth Grade Nothing," has no say in becoming an older brother. "Superfudge" deals with the universal human concern of family and finding themselves in that family, for example, Peter at first was the baby, but then he has that family placement taken from him when his brother is born. In "Superfudge" Peter not only finds out that there is to be another family member on the way, but that they are moving from New York to New Jersey. This to Peter is a critical change in his young life and seems like a never ending crisis. I truly recommend this book to young readers, especially those with younger siblings because this might help them understand that they are not alone in this world with the same problems. Because pre-adolescence is a critical stage, for both males and females, any type of change can seem like the world is going to end. Judy Blume's "Tales of a Forth Grade Nothing" and "Superfudge" is a reflection of such feelings in young boys who because of their family issues undergo many difficult changes that to a young boy are hard to deal with. Blume's books make young readers feel that they are not the only one's with problems. Because pre-adolescence is a stage where young adults feel as if they are alone with their issues, Blume helps them realize that life gets better, easier to deal with and most importantly, that they are not alone.

Summary: Well written, but not as good as Fourth Grade Nothing
Review: At age 9 I enjoyed this book but didn't like it as much asTales Of A Fourth Grade Nothing. For one thing, there were no pictureslike the previous book. Another thing, I felt like the Fudge series lost some of it's innocense with one of Peter's friends saying blankety-blank (they didn't actually print it out but hinted it) in front of Fudge and his pals. Peter's pal should have known better. I wouldn't recommend this book to really young readers for that reason, and it may be upsetting for some kids because of the fact that Blume gives the impression that there's no Santa. Now when I read it, I wasn't upset because I already knew. But I think it'd upset some children, and I thought it was sad that Fudge lost his childlike innocense by not believing in Santa anymore. So parents, I highly advise you to proof-read this book before handing it over to your kids, as with any questionable material.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is soooooo funny!
