Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
Grade 3-4–Judy Moody's individuality is threatened when she meets fellow third-grader Amy Namey. Not only do they have first and last names that rhyme, but they also idolize pioneering women and have quirky collections. Just when the two strong personalities seem destined to collide, they hit it off. Much to the chagrin of Amy's best friends, Rocky and Frank, the girls join the My-Name-Is-a-Poem Club and become inseparable. When the entire third grade starts an assignment that will take them Around the World in Eight Days, Judy's fascination with her new friend sparks a project-threatening feud with which many readers will identify. This book gives a humorous and familiar peek at the world through the eyes of a precocious third grader. It is filled with original, yet true-to-life characters who will make readers wish for a friend like Amy. The silly rhymes and wordplay are the perfect humor for young readers. Pen-and-ink cartoons add to the fun. An entertaining journey that will have easy-chapter-book readers lining up for the trip.–Heather Dieffenbach, Lexington Public Library, KY

From Booklist
Gr. 2-4. When Judy Moody meets Amy Namey, she bridles at the girl's similarities to her own proudly unique persona. They soon become great friends, however, but in her enthusiasm for Amy, Judy slights her old pals Rocky and Frank. In one amusing scene, Judy's little brother acts as a conversational go-between, relaying comments between his sister and Rocky, who's not (technically) speaking to Judy. Like others in the series, this book features a reader-friendly format, on-target humor, and convincing depictions of third-graders in action at school and at home. Illustrations not seen.

5.0 out of 5 stars A latest instant winner!, April 8, 2007
By Neat Mom (Merrifield, Virginia) - See all my reviews
My kids have all Judy Moody and Stink books. They love them, and I know for the fact that they help kids who struggle with reading in 3rd grade. They are easy to read and have a good story, are funny and appealing to that age group. A must have!

5.0 out of 5 stars Packed with adventure and Peter H. Reynolds' simple, fun drawings., October 7, 2006
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Megan McDonald's JUDY MOODY: AROUND THE WORLD IN 8 1/2 DAYS tells of Judy, proud of her rhyming name's uniqueness - until Amy Namey enters the scene with not only a rhyming name, but an attitude much like Judy's. Will Amy prove a best friend or an enemy? Add in jealousies over a team project and numerous social interactions which bring new challenges to Judy's circle and you have another Judy Moody book packed with adventure and Peter H. Reynolds' simple, fun drawings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and educational!, January 6, 2008
By J. Arena (Williamsburg, VA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
Beautifully done pen and ink drawings set the mood for this light read with a serious story.

Judy Moody meets a girl whose name also rhymes, and also shares her dedication to offbeat interests. With Judy suddenly feeling that she's lost her identity -- she's no longer one-of-a-kind -- we all wonder if Judy will make this girl her nemisis, or become her pal!

Young readers will read Judy Moody: Around the World in 8 1/2 Days over and over again. Kudos once again to Megan McDonald for a great read!
