Super Fudge, July 21 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Judy Blume Boxed Set: Fudge-a-Mania; Otherwise Known as Sheila; Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing; Superfudge (Paperback)
I wish I had read the alert before we checked out this book!!! When my daughter (8 yrs. old) and I came to the popular Christmas myth issue, I pretended that I was too tired to continue reading. (I hid the book the next morning and then took it back to the library without finishing it. She searched for it for a few days and then forgot.) I was also a little uncomfortable with the whole "where babies come from" discussion at the beginning of the book. We had read "Tales of a Fourth-Grade Nothing," and thought this would be a good follow up. I think we'll keep the Judy Blume books on the shelf for a few more years.

I agree with the Santa Alert, Jun 20 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Judy Blume Boxed Set: Fudge-a-Mania; Otherwise Known as Sheila; Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing; Superfudge (Paperback)
I was also surprised when they discussed that Santa did not exist. I know the book says it's for 9-12 year olds, but my 7 year old still believes and I had to skip many a paragraphs not to get into that discussion. Otherwise, the book made me laugh a lot with my son and we enjoyed it

Judy Blume made me love books. She's wonderful!!!!, Jan 1 2003
This review is from: Judy Blume Boxed Set: Fudge-a-Mania; Otherwise Known as Sheila; Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing; Superfudge (Paperback)
I was lucky to have a library of Judy Blume books at my disposal when I was in elementary school and middle school. I loved her books so much that my parents would have to HIDE her books prior to our vacations so I would have something left to read in the car. Otherise, I would read them all, cover to cover, one after the other. Judy Blume's characters are very clever and just the tiniest bit mischevious, which is what makes these books uniquely INTERESTING. Have you seen the drivel given to middle readers?? If you want your child to start loving reading...this is IT. Buy them all. Buy them now. (Maybe your kids will end up English majors and book lovers like I did.)
