Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume
Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is a story about the life of a nine year old boy named Peter Hatcher and his annoying little brother Fudge. Peter is faced with constant challenges as his little brother is always getting into trouble. 

My students LOVED this novel! While reading the book, one of my fourth graders told me that this is the funniest book he has ever read. Not only is this book tremendously witty, it is a quick read that every student can relate to personally.
