Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing reviewed by Patrick

Tales of the Fourth Grade Nothing By Judy Blume.

‘’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!!!

“Dear rodent  friends ,Do you know me? I run a newspaper called The Rodents Gazette. It’s the most popular paper on Mouse Island. But  I’m  not here to squeak about the paper. I want to tell you a story that will make your fur stand on end! It started like this exactly like this. Geronimo Stilton.”

The order of the fairy queen

Geronimo Stilton: He runs the rodents gazette, the most famous newspaper on Mouse Island. Hes a brainy mouse who likes to write about his fabulous adventures. No he’s on a journey through the Kingdom of fantasy.

Scribblehopper: This is Geronimo’s official guide through the Kingdom of fantasy. A chatter-box who calls himself a literary croy, he dreams of writing a best selling book.

A mouse named Geronimo Stilton (a scaredy cat)was in his attic when he saw a music box. The music box was actually a portal to the Kingdom of fantasy. Scribblehopper (a frog who is a big chatterbox) was the guide through the Kingdom of fantasy.

Scribblehopper thought Geronimo was a knight. “I’m not a knight!” Geronimo kept saying. Scribblehopper ignored him.

A lesson in this book is that you should never be afraid to try something new.

Readers will really enjoy the mixer of adventure and humor. I highly recommend this book for people who love adventure and humor.

Matilda is a genius, She is short, She has brown hair and her parents yell at her for no apparent reason.Plus her brother just ignores her. This is the life of Matilda.

Matilda is obsessed with books. She goes to the library every day when her dad is at work and her mother goes to Bingo with her brother. When ever the librarian looks over at Matilda she is amazed at the kind of books that she is reading. Such as books that are meant for people over the age of 15 and she is only 3 years old!When Matilda starts school she meets this teacher called Miss.Honey who lives by the river bank in this little cottage that is so small she has to duck to get inside.Miss.Honey also has to sleep on the the ground she is that poor! When Miss.Honey and Matilda want to live together they try to stand up to her parents but Matilda and Miss.Honey have to come up with a plan to make both of their lives better.

Some of the lessons messages and themes are you should treat people the way you want to be treated because in the part where Matilda's parents yell and hit Matilda meanwhile Matilda was being very nice to them but they weren't noticing.And If you work together you can make a difference.If you like books that end with happy endings then this is the book for you!
