I read this book a long time ago, when I was little. I remember I loved it1 I have the rest of the series, and I need to get this one.

"wo's a crowd when Peter and his four-year-old brother Fudge are in the same room. Grownups think Fudge is absolutely adorable, but Peter and his pet turtle Dribble know the truth. Fudge is actually a tiny terror, causing mischief everywhere he goes." (From Amazon)

I LOVED this book and could not wait to get the other books in the series.

A fun book to read aloud to my son, although more details than expected had to be explained along the way. Since we currently reside in a suburb, the concept of living smack dab in the middle of a huge city is quite foreign to him, which led to defining terms like doormen, pollution and mugging. The book is also very much a product of its 70's publication date, featuring formerly commonplace things like record players and handwritten reports that are unfamiliar to today's kids. Aside from some minor characteristics, however, the story is fairly timeless and features one of the kookiest children in literature. I don't remember the other books in this series as fondly, but I'm sure we'll get to them eventually given the strong impression that Fudge made on my child.

Read out loud to my 4th grader. It was an absolute delight experiencing her enjoying Peter, Fudge and their antics.

I chose to reread this book because growing up it was one of my favorites. Still is. I plan to read this book to my kids in the near future for laughs. Every chapter is hilarious and was able to put a smile on my face.

My sister was a fan of the Fudge books, so I was a fan of the fudge books.
Eventually I realized my sister was Peter and I was Fudge.
The Super Fudge books were always my favorite Blume books
