[.ca] Judy Moody Gets Famous! (Book #2) (ISBN 0763608491)

My 6 year old devoured it!:
This series of Judy Moody books have been great for my 1st grader. She has been dying to have "books of her own" and not her sister's hand me downs. I was amazed how absorbed she became with the book and actually finished the first one in two days. Everywhere we went she took her book to read, even at the restuarant while we waited for our dinner to come to the table. Some of the things she loves in the book is that she calls her brother "stink", her cat is named "mouse" and the frog mascot pees on them. Plus one of Judy's friends eats paste ... Just an all around fun book but parts have teaching value as well. In this book Judy wanted to be famous and tried several things, like entering a pet trick contest where her cat can make toast! She one second place but when the picture appeared in the paper - only her elbow showed and the back end of her cat. But in the end of the story Judy winds up at a hospital waiting room for kids where the dolls are all broken. She takes them home without telling anyone and fixes them all up, hair, heads, clothes, casts etc. One doll she drew a broken heart on the chest and a line down the middle of the doll from the neck to the belly button. This was representative of a girl she met there who I just had a heart transplant. She packaged all the dolls up and mailed them back to the hospital. Later, in the newspaper "The Phantom Doll Doctor" appears an article - no one knows who repairs the dolls or returned them. Judy's parents know but doesn't let on to her and they put the article up on the refrigerator. Judy never reveals that she was the Phantom doctor but she got great satisfaction out of knowing that she did something good and she was famous - even if she only knew.

Judy Moody Gets Famous:
My eight-year-old daughter loved this book. There were a few challenging words for her, but she was excited to read a "chapter book." I caught her laughing out loud.

Judy Moody Gets Famous:
I recently bought the Judy Moody books for my 8 year old son. I read them too and found them to be enjoyable. In this one Judy just wants to be famous SO bad especially after her younger brother Stink, gets to go to the White House and one of her classroom rivals wins a spelling bee. She, along with her closest friends, try hard to become "famous". Her first attempt of trying to make people believe that she actually has a cherry pit that belonged to George Washington end hilariously. Later she sees a chance to win a contest at the local pet store but at the last minute that one goes awry. Judy does finally achieve "stardom" and it is very heartwarming. You will enjoy these books as well as your children. My 8 year old son just loves them and can't wait for the next one. If your child enjoys the Junie B books, they will probably like these as well.

I really liked this book!:
This book will make you laugh. The illustrations in this book are very cute. I liked the part of the book where Judy and Rocky start a club called "The Toad Pee Club" because a toad peed on them. Kids who read the "Junie B. Jones" series will probably like the Judy Moody books, but the Judy Moody books are a little longer...

Being Famous Is More Then Just Fun!!:
Judy Moody Gets Famous! Have you ever heard of Judy Moody Gets Famous? Well you ran into a book that will keep you reading for hours! This book is about a girl that well in my opinion is crazy, but not wacko out of the world, you know has weird friends for example Franky, he collects bugs or Jessica, who is a spelling bee queen! Her brother is named Stink. In this book Judy Moody tries to get famous, her friend Franky brakes his finger, and has to go to the hospital. She goes with him. She has to wait in the waiting room, where she finds a girl that looks pretty bored. Judy asks, "Why aren't you playing with your dolls?" the girl says, "Because one of them has a broken head and they all have torn legs, and their arms are a mess." As usual, Judy Moody gets to work. She wants this girl to have fun. I will not tell you anything else, because then you'd know the whole book. Judy Moody's mood I think that Judy Moody is very strange but not in a weird way, in a fun way!! She is nice to her friends. She can get in fights sometimes, but always makes up. On the other hand, her family is strange too. I mean, a cat named mouse and a brother named Stink? Talk about weird. At first Judy Moody freaked me out. Then she got funny. Then hilarious. Then my eyes are stuck on the book. The Information Paragraph Judy Moody really reminds me of Junie B. Jones because they both like to be in the middle of things. It also reminded me of my friend Katie because she is very funny , nice to talk to and love s this book just like I do !This book is by Megan McDonald, and illustrated by Peter Raynold. They also wrote Judy Moody and Judy Moody saves the world. You can find these books at any bookstore or library. THE END!!
