Double Fudge

Double Fudge (2002) by Judy Blume. The much-loved children's author has cranked out another of her children's books. I was curious about what was so special about her, so I checked this book out. Apparently, kids love her books. I can't tell why, but I'm not an expert. In this book, not much happens. The protagonist, Peter, has a little brother nicknamed Fudge. Fudge gets in some trouble. Peter's father has a long-lost cousin who unexpectedly comes to visit, along with his wife and three children. The visit is unwelcome and unpleasant. Peter suffers through it all, then it ends. And yet, it is not  a bad read. It's just not targeted at adults. Grade: B
