Judy Blume's Fudge Box Set

Timeless reading material for 3-5 graders reflecting a wholesome look at life and situations that children must navigate.

I bought these Judy blume books for my granddaughter. I read all of Judy blume's books when I was a child 40 years ago! Still great! Durable, great images on the covers, a substantial read. Box set is great quality for the money! I would recommend 👌 Peace

This box set was purchased for my 3rd grade son who was constantly requesting new books to devour. These were surprisingly not in his school's library, but I'd grown up with them myself so I ordered them from here. Judy Blume's knack for writing from the perspective of an awkward preteen is still a goal most authors strive for. The humor throughout is age appropriate, but not so sugar-sweet that it reads like nursery rhyme. It touches lightly on first crushes, the shocking (and oddly hilariously written) death of a pet, and the ever popular theme of sibling rivalry. The books are just as good as they were in the 80s and 90s. I'd had concerns that the jokes or settings would be dated and feel out of place since the books came out so long ago, but they have held up very well over time. My son followed along just fine, and I personally didn't notice too many overly nostalgic quips that would need to be explained to a modern day youngster. There's a surprising amount of character development in these young characters as the books progress throughout the childhoods of Peter and Fudge Hatcher, two brothers that love each other, but whose differences in age and personality often result in frustration and amusing conflicts for the reader. It is VERY important to note that this book series addresses the Santa Claus issue in "Superfudge." If you want your youngsters to maintain their innocence on the topic, do not let them read this particular book in the series until you, and they, are ready. This particular book in the series also touches on light flirting, such as hand holding and little kisses on cheeks. There is a scene where characters are involved in a minor fight as well. It should be noted though, that nothing is introduced that is inappropriate by most family's standards. This series was and remains a staple classic in children's literature. I highly recommend these books for parents that are struggling to pique their children's interest in reading when most subject matter is unappealing to your young readers.

Bought for my nine year old grand daughter. Hope she enjoys these as much as I did. Good price!!!

Great book for 10 or 11 year old

I read these books as a kiddo, then as a teenager I read ever single thing that Judy Blume wrote. I loved it. She is a great writer and definitely sees life and children in a true light. I bought this set for my daughter as our at home summer reading-she loved them too and it was super fun hearing her describe the antics of Fudge and his family. Took me back for sure.

Was excited to start these books with my daughter. They are as good as they were when I was a kid and the stories hold up. Great to get several books in one pack and they are reasonably priced.

These books are as funny and engaging as I remember. My daughters and I are enjoying reading them together. My only disappointment is that they have been updated from the original to make certain tech related elements more current. Tapes have been updated to cds, camp newspapers are done on computers - that kind of thing. These changes don't alter the story in any significant way, but seem unnecessary to me. I wish they had left it alone and let the characters exist in era they were intended.

Great books.

Well packed so arrived in pristine order.

Bought these stories for a Christmas present for a 9 year old grandson. The series starts with a child in grade 4 and then moves on each year. The story mainly covers the funny antics of a younger brother, something very relatable for many kids. Our son loved reading Judy Blume books as a child. They are wholesome and entertaining. No need to read them first to check out the language and storyline is acceptable.

Nothing to complain about.
