Background
Judy Blume brings us back to 4th grade by teaching us how to make Freckle Juice and the simple joy of being the one picked to be in a play.
My Thoughts
Even in 4th grade I thought Judy Blume’s books were pretty spot on with the thinking of a 4th grader. Now, nearly 4 decades later, I was surprised how quickly I was brought back to that time. Enough time has passed that I had forgotten the plot and was able to enjoy discovering the story yet again. (Perhaps that will be one of the few blessings of going senile.)
Recommendation
Great book. Everyone should read it.
