SuperFudge was so funny! I laughed about the little sister Tootsie part so hard. It was probably one of the funniest books I have read so far. It was great and I wish ALL books were as funny as that one!

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.)

I thought that this book was exciting because it had to do with a mischevous little boy. It made you want to find ot what the boy does. I reccomend this book to anybody.

Yes, the chapter titles are listed in the Table of Contents. However, I believe there should be some reference to this chapter on the back cover to give parents a heads up!

This book was one of several on my daughter's required summer reading list from her school. I read the back cover and even listened to her read the first couple chapters out loud.

Maybe it's old fashioned but I looked forward to having this discussion with my daughter....never thought it would be Judy Blume....

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

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.
