More About the Author

10 THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT ME

10. The first book I ever wrote was about a hermit crab, inspired by a pet I once owned.

9. My favorite color is purple.

8. I love to read mysteries. When I was Judy's age, I read all 56 classic Nancy Drew books . . . in order! Jeepers!

7. I used to collect scabs so I could examine them under the microscope that I got for my 8th birthday.

6. My four sisters and I often made up our own language, which included the words "Hoidi Boidi", "oogey", "retzel crummypuss" and "poony-poony".

5. My favorite TV show is JEOPARDY!

4. To research my Sisters Club book, THE RULE OF THREE, I toured San Francisco in search of the ultimate cupcake. The winner: Sleepless in San Francisco. Think chocolate + coffee.

3. When I was a kid, I fell down a hill from chasing the ice-cream truck and had to get stitches.

2. When I was a librarian, I used to tell stories in sign language. That's how I got the expression "same-same" for Judy.

1. I share a birthday (February 28) with a famous princess, race car driver and gangster, a Rolling Stone, a French tightrope walker, and a winning racehorse named Smarty Jones.

I bought this book for my 8 year old daughter. She loves this series and it has really helped move her from little kid books to chapter books. She was intimidated to read chapter books and very reluctant to move from younger books to "bigger books" but these made the transition very smooth for her. She loves the story lines and Judy Moody isn't as bratty as Junie B. Jones. She now has the whole set and re-reads these constantly. The boy version of these is Judy's brother Stink's series and she loves to read those too. I highly recommend these books from around 5 if you're reading them to the child up to about 8 or 9.

Always a great read and my daughter loves the whole series. I've read them to her, with her and she's read them on her own. Now my next daughter is getting into them too. Lots of fun. Being from Australia, it's a little too Amercanised for us, but the kids don't really mind.
