Freckle Juice



Freckle Juice by Judy Blume
    Sometimes it is necessary for us to read just plain silly books. I think this book is a good way to get students excited about reading. It is not informational but it is funny and students can relate to it.
    Freckle Juice is about a boy who sits behind a kid in class who has many freckles. This young boy decides he really wants freckles too. A girl in his class overhears that he wants freckles and tells him that she has a magic recipe for freckle juice. He pays her fifty cents to get the recipe and rushes home to try it out. You will have to read the book to see if the freckle juice works!
    I thought this book was a fun and entertaining. It would be a great book for students to read when they need to laugh.
    This book can be used for students enjoyment. It would be a good book for children to read on their own or for the teacher to read to the students during a free reading time. Students will find reading fun because this book is entertaining and silly.

  1. I grew up reading a lot of Judy Blume books. I think it is time to start revisiting them. I have noticed that they have continued to update the covers with reprints. I bet many kids would not realize that they were published when they were.
