2) Audio CD Book Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing (Fudge) by Listening Library (Audio). My Fourth Grade daughter has book reports due every 2-3 weeks. I went online to find some books I remembered reading as a child to see if she would enjoy them as much. While reading this book, my daughter would laugh out loud and tell me things she was reading. She really enjoyed the humor and the content of the book. She is going to be a big sister herself in a few months so I think she found the stories of Fudge even funnier because of that. Her book report went off without a hitch and she was able to convince other children in her class that this is a great book to read. She´s going to start Superfudge next! I would highly recommend this book and so would my daughter.¤

4) Audio CD Book Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing (Fudge) by Listening Library (Audio). In Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing (Bantam, 1972), Judy Blume introduces Peter, an average fourth grader, living in an apartment in New York City with his parents; his little brother, Fudge; and his newly acquired turtle, Dribble. Three-year-old Fudge constantly creates drama in this otherwise quiet family, whether he is ruining his father´s career or disrupting the family dinner. Fudge always seems to attract some type of attention from adults--whether for his cute face or his mischievous behavior. By comparison, Peter feels like a fourth grade nothing. It´s not easy for Peter to love his little brother, who always seems to be the center of attention. As Fudge´s trouble-making habits escalate, Peter´s life is increasingly affected. Fudge destroys the school project that Peter and his friends labored over for weeks, and the toddler can´t seem to keep away from Peter´s beloved pet turtle. But when Fudge´s actions bring on a family disaster, Peter learns that he is more than a fourth-grade nothing in the eyes of his family.

Readers will identify with scenes from Peter´s everyday family life. This book is for every kid who leads an ordinary existence, dealing with parents, siblings, homework, and know-it-alls.

5) Audio CD Book Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing (Fudge) by Listening Library (Audio). Judy Blume´s, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing (Puffin Books 1972), is a humorous tale of a nine-year-old boy named Peter and his younger brother, Fudge. Peter is consistently upset by three-year-old Fudge´s antics, including disappearing at a movie theater while trying to touch the bears that appear on-screen and playing with Peter´s turtle, Dribble without his permission. In addition to dealing with his annoying little brother, Peter must also hang out with Shelia, his nemesis from down the street. Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is the first in the series of books about the Hatcher family. Blume´s comedic scenes are not only naturally written, but they are believable as well. Fudge´s apt for getting into trouble is sure to delight younger readers, while the tragic (albeit humorous) scene concerning Dribble will surely appeal to older readers of Blume´s classic novel about a New York City family.¤

6) Audio CD Book Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing (Fudge) by Listening Library (Audio). Living with his little brother, Fudge, makes Peter Hatcher feel like a fourth grade nothing.

Whether Fudge is throwing a temper tantrum in a shoe store, smearing smashed potatoes on walls at Hamburger Heaven, or scribbling all over Peter´s homework, he´s never far from trouble. He´s a two-year-old terror who gets away with everything—and Peter´s had enough.

When Fudge walks off with Dribble, Peter´s pet turtle, it´s the last straw. Peter has put up with Fudge too long. How can he get his parents to pay attention to him for a change?

7) Audio CD Book Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing (Fudge) by Listening Library (Audio). Passed on from babysitters to their young charges, from big sisters to little brothers, and from parents to children, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and its cousins (Superfudge, Fudge-a-mania, and Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great) have entertained children since they first appeared in the early 1970s. The books follow Peter Hatcher, his little brother Fudgie, baby sister Tootsie, their neighbor Sheila Tubman, various pets, and minor characters through New York City and on treks to suburbs and camps.

Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is the first of these entertaining yarns. Peter, because he´s the oldest, must deal with Fudgie´s disgusting cuteness, his constant meddling with Peter´s stuff, and other grave offenses, one of which is almost too much to bear. All these incidents are presented with the unfailing ear and big-hearted humor of the masterful Judy Blume. Though some of her books for older kids have aroused controversy, the Hatcher brothers and their adventures remain above the fray, where they belong. (Peter´s in fourth grade, so the book is suitable for kids ages 8 and older.)¤
