Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
There's no doubt about it--Fudge Hatcher is a sweet little guy, and fans of Blume's Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and Superfudge will cheer his return. Here the five-year-old extrovert continues to annoy his older brother, narrator Peter, whose gruff demeanor hides a very big heart. Blume's latest fast-pitched, funny novel further develops the relationship between these two endearing brothers as the Hatchers and their New York City neighbors, the Tubmans, share a house in Maine for a three-week vacation. Sheila Tubman, Peter's nemesis in Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great , returns in fine form, appearing for breakfast each morning in her fuzzy pink robe and bunny slippers--just one of Sheila's many habits driving Peter crazy and inspiring numerous diverting scenes. In fact, the colorful antics of all members of the two families--as well as a handful of the locals they meet--make reading these pages a treat. Ages 8-12.

From School Library Journal
Grade 2-5-- The Tubmans and the Hatchers return in this latest chronicle of the hilarious escapades of Fudge, Pete, and Tootsie Hatcher and Sheila "Queen of Cooties" Tubman. Their parents decide to spend their summer vacation in the woods of Maine right next door to each other--but "next door" turns out to be in the same house. Fast-paced mayhem becomes the order of the day as children, adults (including Grandma Hatcher and Grandpa Tubman), and assorted pets find themselves in daily (hourly?) predicaments. Not to be outdone in the madcap pace, Grandma and Grandpa announce their intention to be married. The story concludes with the solemn pact between Pete and Sheila that even though they'll be related, they will always hate each other. The story is filled with humor, and the upbeat mood is sustained at a hectic pace from first page to last. The uncomplicated plot is developed smoothly with just the right doses of surprise and laughter to keep readers turning the pages. Characters are credible, and never lose their identities. Be forewarned--fun between the covers of the bright red dust jacket means multiple copies for purchase. --Mary Lou Budd, Milford South Elementary School, OH

Farley Drexle Hatcher,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fudge A Mania (Mass Market Paperback)
Fudge-A-Mania is a really funny book. Fudge is always making trouble everywhere he goes, even at a restaurant. Peter is Fudge's older brother and he always minds his own busness. Shelia is the snottiest person on the whole planet. The Hatchers go on a trip to Maine for three whole weeks, but there is good news and there is bad news. The good news is that his best friend Jimmy Fargo gets to come. The bad news is that The Cootie Queen, Sheila Tubman, also comes. Peter thinks that this vacation couldnt get any worse, but it does!!!

Funny Fudge,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fudge A Mania (Mass Market Paperback)
I am in second grade and I thought this book was very funny. Fudge gets a new bird and his bird does funny things. The book made me laugh so hard I had to blow my nose. I recommend other kids to read it because you will like it too.
