This is the story of Peter who has a little two year old brother who the family calls Fudge. Peter's life it turned upside down by the antics of Fudge. Fudge really is a little terror unless he is sleeping. Judy Blume has a nack for getting into the heads of children and seeing things through their eyes. ( )

Tales of a fourth grade nothing is good for grade 4 readers. It is about Peter Hatcher and his little annoying brother Fudge. One day they have visitors and Fudge gets his dad in trouble! Their dad makes commerciels. And Fudge is in one of them without mothers permission!!!!!!!!!!!! ( )

This book is cute and humorous!! I really enjoyed this easy reader chapter book about a boy who must endure the wiles of his mischievous little brother!! Every kid with a younger sibling can relate to the main character. Peter talks and jokes about feeling left out, over looked, unappreciated, embarrassed, angry, and in shock about how his parents discipline Fudge. This is a must read for anyone who loves books, words, humor, and their family. I oculd use this book as a read aloud or for topical study/discussions about the above. Grades 3+ ( )

This book is about a boy named Peter Hatcher who is in the fourth-grade. Peter's little brother who goes by Fudge because he doesn't like his legal name is constantly getting on Peter's nerves. Fudge is a trouble-maker who is two and always causing some kind of trouble, but never gets in trouble for it. Peter feels like he has put up with Fudge for way too long and has decided that he needs to do something about it, so he has to find a way to gain his parents attention.

Book description

Amazon.com (ISBN 0142401013, Paperback)

Passed on from babysitters to their young charges, from big sisters to little brothers, and from parents to children, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and its cousins (Superfudge, Fudge-a-mania, and Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great) have entertained children since they first appeared in the early 1970s. The books follow Peter Hatcher, his little brother Fudgie, baby sister Tootsie, their neighbor Sheila Tubman, various pets, and minor characters through New York City and on treks to suburbs and camps.

Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is the first of these entertaining yarns. Peter, because he's the oldest, must deal with Fudgie's disgusting cuteness, his constant meddling with Peter's stuff, and other grave offenses, one of which is almost too much to bear. All these incidents are presented with the unfailing ear and big-hearted humor of the masterful Judy Blume. Though some of her books for older kids have aroused controversy, the Hatcher brothers and their adventures remain above the fray, where they belong. (Peter's in fourth grade, so the book is suitable for kids ages 8 and older.)
