    One of the issues in Double Fudge is embarrassment because when the “Natural Beauties” (Fauna and Flora, Peter’s cousins. That take turns talking for their younger brother Mini) sing in front of Peter’s school.  He feels “sick” and has to go to the nurse.  Another issue in Double Fudge is conflict.  I think this because when Fudge (Peter’s younger brother that is naughty and funny) finds out that someone else in his family has the same name as him.So he starts to fight with him.So he starts to fight with him.  Another issue in Double Fudge is honesty because when Mini(Fauna and Flora’s younger brother that is naughty and has the same personality as Fudge when he was little) “accidentally” lets Uncle Feather (Fudge’s mina bird that likes to speak French and likes to say bad words like:  “Bonjour stupid!”) out of his cage he admits that he did it.


    A summary of Double Fudge is in the the beginning Fudge discovered money by asking Peter (Fudge’s older brother that is intelligent and a great friend) how much New York City is.  And in the middle the Hatcher’s find their long lost cousins in D.C.  With a kid that has the exact same name as Fudge!  And close to the end Fudge, Mini, and Mrs.Osterman (a really nice woman and friendly to everyone) got stuck in the elevator on Halloween!


Double Fudge is a brilliant story that I recommend for all children around the world.  I especially recommend this story for all elementary school and middle school age children.

‘’Oh’’! Peter why didn’t you tell me you had a hole in your sock ‘’I  didn’t  know I had a hole in my sock.
Tales of The Fourth Grade Nothing is about a 8 year old boy (Peter Hatcher) who thinks  his life is falling apart because his younger brother(Fudge) is making his life miserable by getting lost in the movies to having a temper tantrum in the shoe store Peter always half to watch on him.

In Tales of The Fourth Grade Nothing the message in this is you should always be nice to your brothers and sisters,don’t invade people’s properties,and give people some space for a while.

I recommend Tales of the Fourth Grade Nothing to kids and adults 8 and older.Tales of the Fourth Grade Nothing is a winner for a humorous story.

A nine year old, Peter Hatcher lives in New York City in a apartment with a mother, father, a brother, and a pet turtle.  Peter’s brother is very young and causes a lot of trouble.     Peter wants to be a normal family but he can’t with his crazy brother.  Peter is the kind of person who is very polite for example, he got a picture dictionary for three year olds and already had the book.  Peter still thanked Mr. and Mrs.Yarby that shows Peter is very commendable.


Peter won Dribble his pet turtle at his friends birthday party because he guessed how many jelly beans were in a jar.  Fudge is obsessed with Dribble but Peter doesn’t let him touch him.  Fudge never gets in trouble for what he does and a lot of the time he gets lucky, for example, he is on a Toddle-Bike commercial


A Lesson in this story is that always listen because if you don’t always listen things could go wrong.  For example, Fudge always gets into trouble because he doesn’t listen.

Along with humor and a realistic story this book will amuse in elementary school.  This is definitely Judy Blume’s best book

Double Fudge is trying to teach kids to always be themselves because it can be annoying to the person you’re trying to copy! What I’m trying to say is that you can be doing things you don’t want to be doing just because other people are doing it which isn’t a good thing because being yourself is Fudges #1 RULE, it also shows people your not afraid to show people your different!


My favorite part of Double Fudge is when Fudge acts like he is the SMARTEST kid on the planet!!! When he is but he is but he is only five “5” years old Fudge knows how to count up to 100 and he knows how to say the alphabet! Fudge is also super FUNNY! Plus Fudge can remind readers of FUNNY/ CRAZY/ ANNOYING… siblings!!!

Fudge is a special kind of character because he likes to be himself which is the kind of characters that i LOVE because i like when characters are different! Fudge does his own thing until….


His COUSIN mini Fudge comes in and copies EVERYTHING Fudge does! Fudge is starting to get annoyed because of mini Fudge which is Fudges real name too, Fudge's real name is Farley Drexel Hatcher which also is mini Fudges!!!! Fudge is now trying to figure out why but the word isn't spilling so now he finds out not everything isn't the same mini fudge lives in Washington D.C and fudge lives in New York City so that's not the same at least not now!!!


I recommend this book to all readers because it is hilarious!! I also like it because it has a lot of family, friend, drama.

I think every reader would enjoy this book because I know a lot of people who really liked the book Double Fudge. When you start to read Double Fudge you will begin to LAUGH so hard, I hope you enjoy Double Fudge!!!
