Quand j’étais petite, j'ai détestée Sheila Tubman. Je pensais qu'elle était méchante. Maintenant? Elle est encore ennuyeux! Mais, je pourrais aussi rire maintenant.

I wanted to like Sheila, but I couldn't get over how annoying I found her.

The first book was so great and I loved it so much that I was happy to find a whole new series. But this book ruined the series.
Sheila is a spoiled brat. I don't like her here though she was okay in the first book. She is a terrible liar. A kid of her age is not supposed to be a liar. She doesn't even know lying is not a right thing to do. I wonder why Judy Blume don't make her understand that very clearly!
I missed lil Fudge and fourth grade boy Peter Warren Hatcher whole time reading this book.

The chapter where the 10-year-olds at a slumber party fat shame another 10-year-old was tough to read.

A pleasant reread. My impression of it as an adult is the same as when I was a kid — the other Fudge books are more enjoyable, with more likable characters

Ahoy there me mateys! I was looking for short audiobooks that fit certain time restrictions. I was having so much fun revisiting old books from me childhood that when I saw that Judy Blume herself narrates these I just had to give them a whirl. And I am so very glad I did. Judy Blume is a fantastically wonderful reader. I almost wish I had been introduced to these books by listening to them on audio book. Of course I only read books one and three when I was a kid. So I went back and listened to the entire series.

This book is sometimes considered book two of the series because it follows a side character from book one named Sheila. The story is that Sheila goes on summer vacation with her family to Tarrytown and has to go to summer camp. I had never read it before and have to admit that I didn’t like it. Though it has some good parts, Sheila is a pathological liar who can’t admit when she is wrong or scared. Also there is a sleepover with girl hatred going on in the form of a nasty quiz. There is also a lot of fat shaming. The good parts do not outweigh the bad. Sheila comes across as a nincompoop. She does not seem nearly as awful in the fudge books. I think I will try to eject this from me noggin and go back to me milder version of Sheila from the other books.

My daughter enjoyed this book but couldn’t understand why Sheila didn’t just tell the truth.
